Know When To Say No

Dear reader,

Today I want to show you how to build trust with yourself.

The type of trust that gets you respect and dignity.

And you might be saying, “Arnold, this is boring.”

Well im not going to talk about meditation.

Im not going to show you tricks and hacks.

Nope.

But, I am going to show you how to build indestructible trust within yourself…

… by saying NO.

Early in December, I had trouble coming up with money. I didn’t know how to start paying bills after a tornado of setbacks.

But I had to get back on track fast, because coupon clipping is not my thing.

Therefore, I had to get my life in order and get rid of impulses, distractions and comfort.

I other words: I had to say NO to my destructive patterns, situations, and incoming proposals.

A big change happens when the patterns change from yes to no.

Laser focus on the target meant I had to say no to my thoughts about a haircut, or walking the dog, or checking my email and facebook feed when I felt bored and frustrated.

Say NO to everything that creates sluggish progress to the path of making money.

Now, I am not saying I got rich overnight by saying NO to most of my patterns…

…. But things did start to change rather quickly when I removed the static of distracting thoughts.

But I did say YES to a handful of patterns to help clear my day and get results by bedtime. Habits such as

  • Morning journal
  • Prospecting in 15 minute sprints
  • napping when my brain and body needed a reset
  • healthy nutrition
  • and afternoon weight training exercises.

This is simple when I layout my day and focus on the prize.

The hardest part is learning to say NO with confidence.

Get clear before your plane runs into the mountain.

Okay, go forth and prosper!
