Day 24 of 100: Why you should start saying no


Listen Later

What’s up my Kate's Take listeners! I’m ecstatic to be here with you today! Today is day 24 of 100.

If you’re ready to embrace  SAYING NO, then you’re in the right place.  

First, let’s call on our 5 questions.

These questions are the bookends to your day - answer 1 and 2 in the morning, and 3 - 5 at night. 

  1. What’s one thing I’m grateful for?
  2. What’s one thing I’ll accomplish today that will bring me one step closer to my goal? 
  3. What’s something that’s working well for me right now? 
  4. What’s something that’s not working well for me right now?
  5. How can I either solve what’s not working right now, or get rid of it?

NO ONE is in charge of your time except for YOU. And therefore, no one else will ever value your time the way that you do. So, if you want more time, you - and you alone - have the power to start saying no so that you get it back.

Always give yourself time and space to consider opportunities, and you can do this by thanking the person for thinking of you, and letting them know you’ll get back to them after you’ve checked your schedule.

And a NO doesn’t have to be so black or white!! It might be a “no” to the thing they’ve asked of you, but perhaps there’s another way you can participate or support a cause, just like we’ve done with Palmas Animal Welfare.

I hope today’s episode all about SAYING NO came at just the right time for you.
