Lesson for the Day!

Learn to hear No!

Seldom we are told to learn to say No! Yes, I always used to say Yes to whatever I was asked to do and things didn't go very well with that. I have learnt to say No - may be the hard way, but I believe it's worth it. What I still have to learn is to be prepared to be ignored; to be left out; to be answered with an obtuse No! on the face. Apart from teaching me to accept whatever is thrown at me, it'll also help me to subjugate my expectations from people. 

Learning to say no may be important to live, but learning to hear it might be crucial to even survive!

That's life! You don't always get what you want, hear what you want to hear or get to do what you want to do..It's just a matter of getting used to..and it's a part and parcel of growing! =)

In a way, it's like life gives you back what you give to the world?
