A simple way to say no without overexplaining, apologizing too much, or damaging the relationship.
단계
- 01 Decide what you’re saying no toBe clear with yourself about what you’re declining so the message doesn’t come out vague or confusing.
- 02 Acknowledge the requestBriefly recognize the other person’s request or intention so they feel heard, not dismissed.
- 03 State the no directlySay no in a clear, simple sentence without adding unnecessary justification or qualifiers.
- 04 Give a short reason if neededIf appropriate, offer one concise reason, stopping before it turns into a defense.
- 05 Avoid offering alternatives by defaultOnly suggest another option if you genuinely want to, not to soften the no.
- 06 Close the conversationEnd the exchange cleanly so the no doesn’t reopen itself later.
