Terms:

Delay - a period of time by which something is late or postponed

Deny - refuse to give or grant (something requested or desired) to (someone)

What is it about life and delays? Why can’t the answer/solution/goal just be completed with very little resistance. Resistance is natural, you expect a little resistance. Delays…as soon as there is a delay the line follows.

“I don’t think this is gonna(going to) work.”

There are many types of delays. If you have worked in an office of some sort you recognize what those are immediately. Delays are not just at the personal level. Delays can be within or out of your control. Delays can be excusable and inexcusable. There are cognitive delays, emotional, and physical delays. How you approach or deal with those delays in some ways determines the crux of your denial.

Here I want you to focus on denials within your control. Take a look at one thing on your plate of work orders or tasks that are within your control.

Have you started that outline for that book?

Have you spoke your idea into existence?

Have you ordered that item yet?

Have you reached out and asked for help?

Take a chance to step out from behind of the thoughts of things you can't do because you are waiting on someone or something else. Maybe you can't write the entire book today; though you are able to start with a small spiel of why you want to.
