Saying no is its own leadership capability. It is not just a peripheral skill. - Greg McKeown

Only when we admit we have made a mistake in committing to something can we make a mistake a part of our past. When we remain in denial, on the other hand, we continue to circle pointlessly. There should be no shame in admitting to a mistake; after all, we really are only admitting that we are now wiser than we once were.

By abolishing any chance of being bored we have also lost the time we used to have to think and process.
