I've learned, I think, to be able to distinguish between the necessary and the unnecessary as far as my limited outside time is concerned. Saying 'no' politely is a necessity if one wants to lead any kind of stable life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
But once you allow yourself to recognize necessity, you find two things: One you find your options so restricted that the only course of action is obvious, and, two, that a great sense of freedom comes with the decision.
Habit, if not resisted, soon becomes necessity.
I don't like saying 'no' to people, and I'm going to have to learn how to say 'no' more.
Necessity is not an established fact, but an interpretation.
It's important for us to become aware of the fact that we are needful, for with that awareness also comes the sensing that we couldn't be needful if there weren't something to fulfill the need.
Necessity has no law.
I'm a person who has a hard time saying no, and it gets me into trouble because I sometimes overreach.
There are too many things I find it difficult to say 'no' to.
I have always emphasized the willingness to discard.
Make yourself necessary to somebody.
