Is it acceptable to say ‘no’ when it comes to business?

You may feel the need to give your time right now, but you don’t have to. Decide what you will and will not spend time on and stick to it. Once you have decided what’s important to you, stick to your priorities.

A good example for the holidays would be being selective about events. Do you really have to attend every holiday party? This time of the year is ideal for getting friends and families together, but don’t force yourself to attend every gathering when you need a little R&R or when you’re trying to wrap up last-minute orders.
