Saying no in pressure situations

I have been awful at disagreeing all my life.
Relationships were burned, or future chances were missed.
This framework has literally changed my life.

The Twitter thread is packed with value. It's worth reviewing this graph in the thread context.
Thanks. It's hard to overstate how much it helped me in pressure situations. So many don't like confrontations, which eats you up - I am one of them.
Is the orange square where you're supposed to say no? Because, as long as they're willing to pay more than the cost it is to you, it still could be worthwhile to say yes - in my opinion.
It's a very divergent thinking framework, so there is no one answer. Totally depends on the context, but you got the gist right. In the end, it is always a cost vs benefit analysis.
Good visual!
I struggled too in the past, but one thing I learnt is that it is much better to say no than commit and don't do a great job... people often understand it.
My tactic when I say no (so I don't feel that bad) is to add something like " ...but I know someone who can help/ or I will have a think if I know someone/ or we can come back for this in a month time etc" that normally works!
Although if I know that won't take me long and make the other person so happy I usually say 'yes'
