00:00It is possible to be nice, but ignorant of the truth.
00:04And then niceness will not help.
00:06You must learn to say no.
00:08And you must be brave enough to say yes.
00:11It's just that yes has to be said to the right thing,
00:14and no too has to be said to the thing that deserves a no.
00:18Some random thing has come to you,
00:21and the fellow is begging you to say yes.
00:24Why must you feel pressurized?
00:26But because we are nice people, we just can't say no.
00:29You must roar out a no to all the nonsense.
00:32Useless feelings, random thoughts,
00:36don't they just come and possess you from within?
00:39When that happens, don't be afraid of saying no.
00:44And now you're saying no to yourself.
00:46So learn to say no to yourself.
00:48And when you say no to yourself,
00:50you find it's not very difficult to say no to others,
00:53irrespective of how deeply they are related to you.
