Leia tee vabadusse ja õpi ütlema eiMeid kõiki on õpetatud elama hetkes ja ütlema jah sellega kaasnevat taaka arvestamata. "Ei ütlemine teeb vabaks" annab sulle väe elu ohjad enda kätte tagasi võtta ja haarata taas oma elu üle kontroll. Ole õnnelik, öeldes: "Pagana pärast, ei!" Tänan, ei. Võib-olla mõni teine kord. Ei võib olla öeldud eri viisil ja intensiivsusega, ent selle ütlemine võib olla raske. Meile võib tunduda, et oleme isekad, aga see lihtne sõna on vajalik, et elada täiel rinnal. See informatiivne eneseabiõpiku stiilis raamat, mis õpetab ütlema ei, aitab sul avastada oma tõelised soovid ja need endale sihiks seada; leida rohkem aega inimeste jaoks, keda armastad, ning tegelda oma tõeliste huvialadega. Opi lõpuks ei ütlema. Ei ütlemine võib olla raske. Väga raske. Autor Michael J. Tougias saab sellest aru. Kunagise ülimalt vastutuleliku inimesena kombineerib Tougias uurimistööd, isiklikud lood ning tõestust leidnud meetodid, et aidata meil mõista oma tegusid ja lõpetada jah ütlemine. Lugedes tema tabavat üksikasjalikku kokkuvõtet ta enda tagasilöökide ja õnnestumiste kohta, õpime, kuidas lõpetada püüd olla inimestele meele järele ja kuidas lõppude lõpuks tõsta au sisse meie endi ehe loomus.

Intriguing analysis also compares the Blizzard of '78 with the Great Blizzard of 1888.
