yes and no
two of the shortest and simplest words in english are often not our most obvious choices.
sometimes we say one when we mean the other…sometimes we feel like we have to say one when we want to say the other.
practice using yes or no when we mean yes or no.
saying yes is agreeing to what we believe in or things we want to do, accepting invitations when we mean it, feeling good about helping someone or just yes, because our feelings tell us it is right for us, here and now.
saying no is refusing to lie, declining invitations we don’t want, passing on things we don’t feel good about or just no because our feelings tell us it is wrong for us, here and now.
learning to trust your own feelings of yes and no; what feels right and what feels wrong is the beginning of credibility. people will trust that you say what you mean and mean what you say.
two simple words open the doors to freedom. it is the start of owning your life and controlling where it goes.
