Say No more often

Things you might not be saying ‘No’ to, but maybe should:

• Hanging out with people who don’t bring out your best
• Picking up the phone while you’re working
• Treating all emails equally, in the same place
• Buying what you’re told is best vs what is best for you
• Doing things because of FOMO
• Projects that don’t excite you the moment you hear them
• The fear of not starting projects that excite you
• Taking on proects just because ‘the market is bad’
• Working right up until bedtime
• Thinking your health can wait until next week
• Thoughts powered by comparison, jealousy and pride
• Skipping that family thing because you’re busy
• Being so busy that you consider skipping family things
• Wasting time even thinking about the Joneses
• Feeling insecure or ‘less than’ for any reason
• Over-thinking instead of just doing
• Avoiding saying things that need to be said
• Setting yourself as ‘available’ when you’re not
• Treating time as if it is infinite (for you)

Say No more often.
