'I can't do it' — James Altucher












Four little words which, used thus, serve as the very best way in the world to decline an invitation.

I've used them over the years with superb results.

The person you address as such at first is startled as they try to make sense of what you've just said and they've never before heard in this context.

Then, they recover and, disarmed, reply "O.K."

Try it, you'll like it.

If you're not completely satisfied with the result, let me know and I'll cheerfully refund three times what you paid for this pro tip, invented by the nonpareil James Altucher.
