What are you saying 'no' to that keeps the life you desire just out of reach?
It's funny to watch how often we say 'no' to the things we say we desire.
We turn away from open doors, from outstreached hands, from new experiences that would add color, texture and depth to our lives.
We all get a bit stuck in the familiar, the comfortable, the routine, the safety zone from time to time.
Some more then others, all for different reasons and for different lenghts of time.
'No' becomes a default response, a hesitation, a doubt that can lead to a great deal of stagnation, self-judgment and irritation.
Yet, deep down, we yearn for more.
An uncomfortable rub can begin in that space.
We watch the world move by with a wondering "What if?" growing more irritated with our lack of movement and yet unable to move at the same time...
Join me on this episode for a fun and inspiring tale of my friend, Caroline, who was stuck in this space and made a big demand on herself - to say 'YES!' to every invitiation that came her way for one month straight.
What came of that simple challenge may surprise you and open up the space to say 'yes' yourself...
In this episode we'll explore:
- Why 'no' has become so valuable and automatic in our lives
- How rationalizations, justifications and logical thinking can shut down our trailblazing path
- What to do when you hit the "And now what?" space after reaching your targets
- How to gain ease in the uncomfort of new situations
- Tips on flipping your automatic 'no' into a conscious 'yes'
- Surprising outcomes for life and self-growth when you open up to new possibilities
