We all have 24 hours in a day. ⏰
It’s how we choose to allocate our energy, resources, and time that dictates our success. ⚡️
My recent guest, and former President of Focus Brands, Kat Cole, credits a lot of her career success to saying "yes". 🍔
While it has served her well, she believes that learning to say “no” can be equally as powerful. 🗣
Not only will it save you time but it will also create space for even bigger and better opportunities to say “yes” to! 🔥
Here are some ways you can say no:👇🏼
1) Simply say, “No.” It’s a complete sentence.
2) “Yes, I’d love to help you, but I can’t be the person. Let me introduce you to someone who can.”
3) “No, I can’t give you the donation but I work in a food company. I bet I can donate some food. Would that help?”
4) “I love what you’re doing but that’s not in line with my priorities at this time and I can’t give it the energy it deserves.”
Thoughts? Do you constantly have FOMO and say yes to things you don’t want to do? 👇🏼
