ABSTRACT
It is important that we are aware of the word ‘just’; its slips in there and implies that what we are being asked to do is straightforward and is no big thing. Yet this may or may not be the case. One way to test this is to imagine whether they would still use the word ‘just’ if you just happened not to do it! This chapter looks at how and when we might need to say no. Saying this short word is a vital skill to learn. If we are to maintain our energy levels in the long term it will not be possible to say yes all the time.
