Title: How To Say No
The Lesson: Have you ever had trouble handling rejection? Or have you ever had a hard time turning down other people? Well, this talk covers everything you need to know about the magic word: “no”.
Notable Excerpt: “When I wrote Tribe of Mentors, I reached out to many different experts, leaders, athletes, and entrepreneurs who are the best in the world at what they do. More than 130 people said yes — but many others said no … as it turns out, some of those rejection letters were so expertly crafted, I turned right around and asked the people who rejected me if I could include their letters in the book itself.”
