This week's episode is a mini episode and it is an audio that I left in the seven day success challenge telegram group. So that's a community that was grown out of the back of the seven day success challenge and it was an inspired thought that come to me whilst in the bath. So it is so good that I wanted to share this with you as well. So this week's podcast is super short, so no excuse for you not to listen to it, but I hope it resonates with you and you start to think of the quality of your yeses and your nose. So here we go. Hi, ladies, I've just had another one of those downloads whilst being in the bath. Yes, in the bath again.

Speaker 1: 1:47

But what's come to me and what really just hit home is our life is made up of a series of yeses and nos, and all of our life is made up of those decisions. Whether we say yes or no, the quality of our life is made up of what we say yes and no to. So, when we say yes to our growth, our expansion, our dreams, the things we want to do, the things that light us up, and we say no to the things that drain us and pull us down, or the things that we don't want to do or the things that drain our energy, that's when we have an exceptional life. When we don't have an exceptional life, we're saying yes to all the things that drain us, all the things that the people want rather than what we want, all the things that we think we should do rather than we really want to do, all the things that really go against our values and what we stand for or it deters us from our dream. When we say yes to all of those and we're saying no to going after our dreams, we're saying no to it's not right now. We're saying no to it's not for me.

Speaker 1: 3:08

I was saying no to dream, and big that's when our life fills out of alignment and out of sync. So just a question to ponder on. There's no right or wrong answer. Wherever you are at the moment is perfectly fine, because the thing is you can always change your yes and your no's, and this was the game change it for me. So have a think of what you're saying yes to in your life and what you say no to in your life, and then start to think where you need to change. It doesn't have to be a massive change overnight, but it can be slow, incremental change that makes a huge difference.

Speaker 1: 3:50

So to me, this was the big change that changed my whole life. I started saying yes to me. I started saying yes to protecting my energy. I started saying yes to putting my energy first. I started saying yes to going after my dreams, regardless of what was happening around me, and what I was saying no to was fixing everybody else's problems, trying to get everybody else to the level. I was trying to fix people's emotions, and what happened with that was I naturally focused on me and when other people were coming in that were draining my energy or wanting a piece of that energy. I just would turn around and say, oh, you know, I'm sorry about that. How are you going to solve that? How are you going to fix that? And that was the most freeing thing I have ever done in my life. So I really hope this resonance with somebody who needs to hear it, because this is a game changer. What are you saying yes to? What are you saying no to?
