Don’t ever feel bad for making a decision about your own life that upsets other people. You are not responsible for their happiness. You’re responsible for your own happiness. Anyone who wants you to live in misery for their happiness should not be in your life anyway.
~ Isaiah Hankel
I have noticed that sometimes, our success, promotion and accomplishments become real when we say no to some things and act the right way. The potential that drives you to do that is called self-discipline.
~ Israelmore Ayivor
Say No! Accept the burdens of revenge.
~ Dejan Stojanovic
Be prepared to say “no” to some things. That is the key. When you say “yes” to every invitation, event and call, you will come back to meet you plans on the paper in the same state you left them.
Agree and freely switch on the heart that will take “no” as an answer to some questions.
When it’s not meant to make you up, it’s meant to fake you up. Just say no and act right. Be bold to say “no”.
Just say “no” to bad attitudes. They may say you are “nobody”. Yes! That’s who you are, a “body” that says “no” to evil things!
When I say “no” to some activities that I believe are ungodly, some people say I am “nobody”. Yes, I agree… “no” body; that’s who I am. I am a “body” that can say “no” to bad attitudes!
Say no to corruption; it does not fit you! Say no to bad leadership; you don't fit there. Say no to immorality; it will only fake you! Be bold to say no if that is what will take your breakfast away; you will get a sweeter lunch pack for compensation sooner.
It is hard to say YES when you cannot say NO. Say NO a lot more. Mean it. Watch how saying YES then becomes easier.
~ Gary K. Smith
To exist here, I’ll have to become skilled in saying no—an art in which I was once well accomplished, but one I no longer care to practice.
~ Doug Cooper
We are to count on this fact that we are dead to sin's rule, that we can stand up to it and say no. Therefore we are to guard our bodies so that sin does not reign in us. So we see that God has made provision for our holiness. Through Christ He has delivered us from sin's reign so that we can now resist sin. But the responsibility for resisting is ours.
~ Jerry Bridges
