One must learn to say "NO" effectively. The "NO" feeling usually springs out of
the recesses of one's spirit, a nagging gut feeling that something somewhere is
not quite right for one. One must be able to draw that feeling out and
understand it in its entirety, so that it can be articulated and expressed,
often in defence of one's stand. This can help one avoid the pitfalls later, an
unpleasant situation needs to be nipped in the bud. Of course, it takes courage
to say the N-word, but for that, one needs to convince oneself. Having done
that and the reason being worthy of holding onto, one needs to stick to it. One
will get challenged hugely by the tools of coercion, emotion, threat, sympathy
and so on, but one needs to be steadfast in the stand. At least, extract the
pound of flesh if possible. The repercussions will be a factor of course, but
having calculated them, one needs to stick to the decision come what may.
Difficult of course, but indecision is worse. Take the left or right handed
paths at the fork, don't stand there wondering.
