“I’m not giving you another chance because you don’t deserve it. Please stop asking me to reconsider, because I’m not going to.” “You need to respect my choice and let be me.” “This is my decision and I’m going to stand by it.” “I know what I’m doing and while I appreciate it, I don’t need your help.” “Thanks for the offer, but I can do this by myself.” “This is what I want, and you’re not going to convince me otherwise.” “You don’t need to worry about me. I’ve got this.” “I’m prepared to work hard and do this right.” “I know this isn’t going to be easy, but I’m want it and I’m going to work for it.” “I’m not concerned and you don’t need to be either. I can do this.”
