The most precious gift you can give
The power to say “No” clears away distraction and clutter from our life.
When we say “No” we make a commitment to not do a thing; whether it is a request for our time, money, or our attention.
Very few of us execute our right to say “No” because we want to please the people we care about (even if they don’t care about us).
On the flip side, the power to say “Yes” with conviction, not just a complicit “yes” because you felt you had to, is a powerful signal that displays “I am in control of my life, and I am willing to give you some of it.”
