Moving from can't to can!

While a NO is strong and clearly not a YES, we sometimes focus on the negative a little too much. Negativity can appear anywhere:

➤ I can’t come to the meeting at 9am. 10 would be better.

Changing your approach can create a more positive 😃 and strong 💪🏻 impression:

➤ 10 would be better (I have a client call at 9). Could you confirm if this is possible?

How would you rephrase the first statement?
