(Epic Records - Fair Use) |
When a
professional writer realized how time consuming her assents had become, she
decided to try an experiment. Charyn Pfeuffer
then spent a whole week saying no to
things deemed non-essential, boring
and/or distracting.
She deleted “unsolicited
Facebook messages,” refrained
from continually checking social media DMs,
and firmed up boundaries around personal
time and space. While grappling
with internal “shoulds,” Pfeuffer reminded herself
that “decisions made from a place of
guilt rarely end well for anyone.”
Warren
Buffet seems to agree with this approach. He once said:
The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say ‘no’ to almost everything.
