Ever since we were children, we've had problems dealing with the word "no", and it's undoubtedly the moment in our lives when we work the hardest the placement of the word is in education of a son. Is it? It all depends on the child's behavior and the situation in which the family lives.

It's true that we live with countless possibilities on a daily basis, sometimes everything seems so advantageous that we end up accepting more than half (or all of it). But is that good for us?

There is another situation, where we can deny an element or opportunity wisely without resulting in negative impacts. Is it possible? Find out below.


The "no" in education

Why is it so important to know how to put the word "no" in a child's education? What would be the impact on the life of a child who didn't receive such an education?

Of course, raising and educating children is a couple's responsibility. One of the most complicated parts is when the children grow up and realize that not everything is as they want it to be.

Generally, parents comply with their child's wishes to avoid discontent. It is entirely maternal and paternal to protect their offspring, but when they don't apply denial to educate, children grow up with difficulties in dealing with difficult situations in adulthood.

We know that the world isn't just about what we want; our reality goes beyond that, as we live with more people who depend on us in one way or another.

Let's say you know how to apply this perspective from the time you're little, makes it strongnot selfish at all, but striving to achieve his dreams.


Knowing how to deny opportunities

Another situation, a little further down the line and already in adulthood, is when we have many opportunities that we don't dismiss out of a sense of pity or the simple difficulty of denying them.

Denial can often be interpreted as a closing of doors, in which case people don't feel comfortable in know that they won't be able to have that "forever".

But let's see what life would be like if you only said "yes" to "several doors"... I think the best movie that can show us the impact of this choice is "Yes Sir", a classic starring Jim Carrey.

The film is comical, but brings us the perspective of an individual who has excluded no from his choices. He tend to feel overwhelmedat the mercy of other people's wishes and extremely unhappy with the weather.

However, let's look at another situation with too many yes choices. Think of yourself as a person with lots of friends and each one of them asks you to take part in some activity. If you have a problem refusing offers, you will certainly take part in all of them... but at the end of the day, week or month, will you be okay with yourself?

If you're having trouble with this, start visualizing your decisions in the long term and ask yourself what their impacts will be before deciding. Over time, you will naturally recognize the wisdom of saying no on some occasions.
