The Power of ‘No’

You can do it. I know you can. It’s a simple two letter word that’s easy to pronounce.  Come on, let’s say it together…

Ready? Okay, let’s go…1…2…3…

‘No’

See, it wasn’t that difficult, was it?

So, why don’t you use it more often?

How much time have you allowed others to steal from you by not saying ‘No’ to their requests?  How much time have you stolen from others by refusing to accept ‘No’ as an answer?

We all are given the same 24 hours in a day. It’s your duty to use them responsibly. If you don’t value your time, why would you expect others to?

It’s about priorities. What are yours?

Do you spend your time working on your priorities or working on someone else’s.  Couldn’t a simple ‘No’ go a long way to ensuring your time is spent working on your priorities?

Yes! Yes it would!

So, go out and do it! Take back your time!

Start saying ‘No’ today!

I love words & enjoy the freedom of writing. I strive to find the exact word to convey not only my thoughts, but also my feelings. I desire to fill the paper with words much the same way an artist fills the canvas with paint. To me, writing is an art form. View all posts by Dan
