Long description
Success isn't refusing to take no for an answer, it's learning how to give no as your answer. Many women constantly feel pressured to say yes when they really want to say no. After yes-ing her way into undesirable situations for years, author Beth Wareham decided to stop trying to please others and start enjoying the power of no. What she discovered was that this short, potent word was magic, helping her to create the time and space to follow her own dreams in her own way. Now she shares with other women how to draw upon the power of no to get what they want and need--not only in their love relationships but at work and in all aspects of life. With healthy doses of irreverence and humor, she explains: -how deft use of the word no right at the start sets the tenor of a new relationship -why marriage is no's rich playground and a well-no'd husband makes a happy mate -how to say no to the boss--without ever risking a full-frontal assault -how to use no to get to yes in negotiations -how the word no can help anyone navigate the less appealing moments of daily life--and sometimes even change the world Entertaining and liberating, this guide helps women get over their conditioned desire to please everyone and learn how to say no the right way in order to excel in every aspect of their lives.
