Saying yes will make me less boring

And why my week has been expensive - here's an idea worth playing with

Rob Lambert

May 21, 2023

Hey,

Hope you are safe and well and enjoying your weekend.

A fun little audio show today for "HAIWPW” in which I riff of the idea that I am boring because I say “no” to things and what my week would be like if I just said “yes” to everything.

It’s why I’ve:

Joined the volunteer fire service
Got hours of meetings next week
Now have 20 SEO experts on hand
Agreed to speak at loads of conferences
Got access to a golf club executive suite
Got a container full of toys arriving next year

When we say yes to something we must understand what we are saying No to.

As Derek Sivers says:

It’s either a Hell Yeah, or it’s a no

Until next time..

Rob..
