Yes or no? Does one make you brave while the other leaves you sitting on the sidelines watching it all go by?
Depends on the question, I'm learning.
There are risks and then there are compromises. More specifically, leaps that get you no where except further from yourself.
So there are no results from yesterday, but this post takes me right into today's risk.
TODAY'S RISK: Saying No.
I apologize ahead for the complete vagueness here. There are certain offers I always have trouble turning down. I don't say yes because it's something I want to do; I say yes because I seem to have convinced myself it's what have to do. It isn't and a don't. An offer came my way, that I am perhaps crazy to pass on in this economy. But I am going to say no. And you know what? Feels really good to know I'm not going to put myself in a position I don't want to be in.
Saying no doesn't always mean you are shutting opportunity out; sometimes it means you are just taking a different road.

You aren't saying "no"... your saying "I choose a different opportunity".

That is fantastic. The only way to look at it!:)
ReplyDeleteYou had to say no!because you are a beautiful soul with strong moral beliefs,and that went against everything you stand for and everything we taught you about "money isn't the most important thing in the world" staying true to yourself is always worth more then the almighty dollar(and that was a lot of almighty dollars)so kudos Jamie you always make us proud!!!!!
