I can solve your work/life challenges with one word

I can solve your work/life challenges with one word

Have you noticed how often two year olds say no?

Imagine if you did the same ..

Hey, can you get this done over the Christmas period

No

Can you jump on this meeting, it won’t take long

No

Can you stay late today

No

Hey babe, Something’s come up, can you pick up the kids

No

Hey Mum, can you finish my project for me

No


No excuse

No reason

No apology


Just a simple no.


2 year olds can do this for one very good reason. They LIVE LIKE THEY”RE LOVED.


But as we get older the stories we tell ourselves leave us feeling un-loved, under-valued and under-appreciated.


And what do we do that??


We spend our time proving we really are valuable by saying yes when we should really say no.


The best way to solve your work life challenge is by working on you.


Find out who you are

Love who you are

Value who you are

And acknowledge the contribution you make to your family and business


Do this and you'll become a pro at saying no, you'll claw back your time and along the way teach people how to treat you.


Sound good?

In my new world I have learnt to say No (when appropriate) and it feels great - thanks for the reminder Suzy Jacobs GAICD
