> Two simple tricks to reduce new commitments:
> • When someone asks you to do something in the future, ask yourself if you'd want to do it if it were today. If the answer is no, say no.
> • If you're about to say yes to something under the assumption that you'll have more time for it in the future, say no to it instead.
