(This post is part of the Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge. You can find links to other writers' answers over at Long and Short Reviews. I have not been following along as reliably this year as I did in previous years, but I'm still participating! Mostly.)
This week's prompt is actually my thoughts on social media which right now I do not have. However, I did finally come up with an answer for last week's prompt. A week late, but here it is:
I wish more people were skilled at taking no for an answer.
Yes, sometimes more discussion is needed. Sometimes arguing back is appropriate. But I feel like the world would generally be a better if place if more people practiced answering, "Okay," when they got told "no".
Also I wish people were better at time management. And yes, I am looking directly at the fact that I'm answering last week's prompt right now.
Agree!
ReplyDeleteOoh, that’s a good one!
ReplyDeleteTime management can be hard, too.
Depending on what they're asking, a "no" answer to some people may never be "okay." Sometimes we have to accept that when they respect our "no" the relationship will be over.
ReplyDeleteSometimes that may be a good thing.

That is *very* true.
