If you are disheartened when people say NO to your requests...

Most of us - if not all of us - are in the business of asking for things.

Whether we need new customers or clients, or stand to benefit from persuading others to agree to deals, we have the potential to be rejected.

When someone says no to us, we can see it in a negative 'woe is me' light, or we can turn it around...
