Episode 4038: Jeff Goins explores how constantly saying “yes” can quietly drain your time, energy, and sense of purpose. By learning to say “no” to distractions and obligations, you create space for the work and relationships that matter most, leading to a more intentional and fulfilling life. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://goinswriter.com/yes/ Quotes to ponder: “We don't say no for the sake of saying no. We say no to something good so we can say yes to something better.” “The decisions you make determine the schedule you keep. The schedule you keep determines the life you live. And how you live your life determines how you spend your soul.” “There is an indescribable emotion that accompanies saying no to something you don't want to do. It feels liberating.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
