The power of no

dreamI was coaching with a client today, and she was sharing how much difficulty she was having with distractions that are keeping her from writing her book.

The distractions seemed to be “good things”~ women who are coming to her for mentoring, privately messaging her on Facebook and texting. Yet afterward, she felt drained with no energy left for writing.

We have to say yes to God, yes to our family and loved ones, yes to speaking and writing ~ and NO to other things that are hindering us from fulfilling our purpose.

As women, we often have a hard time saying NO. By nature we are nurturers. We take care of our husbands, children, parents, siblings, friends, business peers or co-workers, audiences, clients, customers…even strangers. 

But it’s necessary in order to do what God is calling us to do. 

Learn the power of saying NO.
