Most people are unable to solve their own problems because they dont know how to say no. People feel awkward saying the word because they believe that the person asking them for something, usually a favor, would be feeling awkward too.
I dont allow myself to be in that situation. I can say no well. I can say it vigorously by shaking my head from side to side. This is especially noticable when I am having my meals. If I dont like something, I say no. If I prefer to eat something else, I would say no. I am quite good at this now.
But the other day, dad was trying to put me to bed and I wanted to play - so I kept saying no. Dad did not agree and kept trying to put me to sleep and he prevailed eventually.
I think I am at the age when I can say all the no I like, but in the end I will still have to obey the orders. I just have to remember not to become docile and forget the importance of saying no when I grow up.
