    I have problems with saying "no" too.

    It's hard to do, but every time I do I always, ALWAYS look back later and realize that I made the right decision.

    I think the money is the #1 thing that motivates me to want to take on the additional work, but it seems that for every project that I turn down another one that's better eventually comes my way. I consider myself very lucky for that, but it's also a place that took years of hard work to get to and a lesson that took a long time to learn.

    Besides the money, I turn down work based on the client. I want a client that puts trust in me and respects me, and most importantly can communicate with me. Clients that do not communicate well are the ones that I don't wind up working with.
