External validation only goes so far, but it sure does leave us empty.. Thank you for visiting :) <BR/><BR/>JoJo - Saying <B>NO</B> is your choice. Being assertive is not the same as being aggressive. Being assertive is being confident in knowing what you like and what you don't. Feel the love and passion for the things you do do, it will make saying <B>NO</B> that much easier. <BR/><BR/>Chris - Feel free to use the post - Or give me a few days for the edited article to be released. Your choice but i'll send you the edited version in a few days. Thank you for the awesome comment. :)Bruno LoGrecohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03704794716622619520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2946883645430222340.post-44771752145748374602008-08-05T18:00:00.000-04:002008-08-05T18:00:00.000-04:00One of the most useful things I've read in a while...One of the most useful things I've read in a while...Can I please have your permission to print this out so I can share it with my students?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2946883645430222340.post-41450421456646892962008-08-05T17:12:00.000-04:002008-08-05T17:12:00.000-04:00I need this little exercise now more than ever bef...I need this little exercise now more than ever before. I've always struggled with the "No" and not wanting to sound aggressive. Usually doesn't work, I usually feel I owe an explanation. So thanks again Bruno...i'm sure this will help me along the path.joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12112607125596693550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2946883645430222340.post-25501673878971097402008-08-05T14:24:00.000-04:002008-08-05T14:24:00.000-04:00Bruno, this is an excellent post and I like the ex...Bruno, this is an excellent post and I like the exercises that you propose. Not long ago, I was the person who never said 'no.' It took some time and a lot of work to teach myself to think before I speak and try to please someone with my answer. You're absolutely right - it's all about self-confidence and assertiveness is a good personality trait.<BR/><BR/>KatiaKatiaYogahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07533292214825674024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2946883645430222340.post-76630583544535395492008-08-05T12:11:00.000-04:002008-08-05T12:11:00.000-04:00This is a familiar issue of mine.
