Just a few days back, I had a deep and healthy conversation with one of my colleagues.

She told me about the difficult phase of her life when she was struggling with her personal and professional life.

She confessed that she broke in that phase and always wondered, “Why is this happening to me?”

Through the months of sadness, tears, isolation, and self-doubt — She survived.

She told me that she was really grateful for that phase because she learned some important lessons during that difficult time.

I personally believe that no matter how many degrees you have but we learn the most important lessons from our experiences.

Here, I’m going to share three important lessons with You. See what she unveiled:

Learn to say “No” firmly and gracefully

Let me ask you one question…

Have you ever felt too scared to turn down a request or invitation from your friend, family member, boss, or colleague?

I hear you murmur “Yes.” Right?

You’re not alone.

It’s a natural part of being human.
