Great organisations are defined by what they say no to. The same is true for great individual careers. A great career is one where the individual made the type of contribution he or she believed was the optimal use of his or her talents, passions, and values and generated the types of desired outcomes that he or she wanted. In other words, the person generated both the desired input and output. Manifesting such a career requires saying yes to a few key opportunities and saying no to a huge number of good, and possibly great, opportunities. What are your thoughts on the matter?
Saying ‘No’ Is Great!

The million dollar question would be, what's your aim in life? To be happy or successful? If you wish to be happy, you can afford to turn down great oppportunities which you know won't bring you happiness. If fame and success in your career is your aim, you should be grabbing every great opportunity that comes your way. To miss one would mean missing out on the opportunity to achieve your aim.
