For us to talk about saying yes, let’s start with why we say no?

NO is easy. no is quick and requires no thought. We can hide behind the word NO. We can shelter ourselves from our fears. NO allows us to be lazy . It allows us to be comfortable by staying within our comfort zone. NO is a word that can keep us safe and sheltered when we need to be or simply want to be. Saying NO can also keep us from living the life we have always wanted. Learn to say YES instead.

Now I am not suggesting that a blanket YES for everything in life is a good idea, let’s hope that some common sense is used in these decisions. But other than health and safety, how bad can saying YES really be? What do you have to gain? What do you have to lose?

Starting your day with the intent of keeping an open mind, with the intention to say yes to the opportunities that come your way each day can lead to a life of amazing experiences and adventures. By making a conscious effort each morning to “Wake With Purpose”, to be intentional with our decisions and actions and to keep an open mind to life’s opportunities is the first step in our day to living the life we have dreamed of.

This week, we will talk more about putting more YES in our minds and getting ready of those no’s that hold us back.

Talk soon,
