NO... A strong word but sometimes needed. Some people find the word "no" so easy to say, though others find it so difficult, I am one of those people I hate to say know when someone ask me to do something at church, some club or anything at school, I give in so easily. I look up to those who know when they have enough on their hands and know when to say, sorry I cant do this or help you with that I am to busy, they know what their limits are and are not afraid to say it.
Today during our youth leader meeting we were reading about how people who are always busy get asked to do more because they are know for doing things, those who are the "couch potato" type are unlikely to get asked to do much. The people, like me, who are so busy and they have no free time need to learn haw to say no I am too busy with other things and i cant do_____ (insert thing here). My dad said at the meeting that we, who are booked, are usually doing something good but maybe we need not to do that and do what is great. For example I have just started going to a thing called "Hang Time" and though it is a good thing where christian high school students hang out and talk about God it may be a good thing for me to do but not a great thing.
Almost everyone has the sort of things like "Hang Time" that are good but not great. The people who do have those things in their life have to realize it and maybe instead of doing what is just good find something that is great.
