The Power Of Yes And No
<p>You buy something at your local grocery store. In your mind, you’re debating if that was a wise choice. After all, right beside this item was a cheaper, no-brand item that held the same quantity of what you chose to buy instead. You could probably relate.</p>
<p>This is the power of FOMO. I wrote on that before, so check it out.</p>
<h2>Saying Yes</h2>
<p>You say yes when you buy one item in a store and not another. You say yes when you decide to do something and not another.</p>
<p>The power of saying yes is powerful, and sometimes, you’re stabbing yourself in the back.</p>
<p>In saying yes to one thing, you forfeit the right to say yes to another thing. You might not have enough space to fit another item, you might not have the money, or you might not have the time. Saying yes to one thing is saying no to another.</p>
<p>At the grocery store, you said yes to the thing you bought, and consequently, you said no to the cheaper stuff. Did it truly make a difference? You would have to ask the companies themselves, as well as their source of supply to really know if it made any differences.</p>
<h2>Say No</h2>
<p>Let’s take another, typical example. You’re at the office, doing some work. Your boss comes up to you and ask for help in another project. What do you do?</p>
<p>Most people would say yes. They’re your boss. Of course it’s a yes. You could lose your job. But saying no could be the right move to finish the work you have been working on so you can go home on time and spend time with your family.</p>
<p>If you’ve ever gone through a rabbit hole on topics such as productivity, you have probably heard of this “saying yes is saying no to another thing” phrase. It really is true.</p>
