Success Topic of the Day: Learning to say No

How do you decide when to say no to something? Is it tough for you, or does it help you stay focused and get shit done?

I am a people pleaser and I have always struggled to advocate for myself. Learning to say No has been a really powerful way to take back my time. 

What about you?

I struggled saying no while at work initially but I’m now very conscious of my workload and will only take something on if I have the time to give it 100% and enthusiasm for the project.  

Learned the hard way but realized that more work does not mean more recognition.  Caliber of work on impactful projects is where you’ll get recognized, even if the time commitment isn’t huge.

this is good. I'm glad that you're coming to this realization my homie! you are appreciated.

you're right more work does not mean more recognition.. gotta get on those bigger caliber projects, and I think for that, as an artist, you gotta know your craft, and your crowd!

Digital Media Producer. I like particles and waves too. I like art.

Yup, learned this during grad school. I’m focusing on one main project now for my job and it’s going much better.
