Some people collect coffee mugs or key chains when they travel. I collect t-shirts. Among my favorites are my t-shirts from the Caribbean that have “Live Slow” on the front ...and “Sail Fast” on the back. (yes, I have them in lots of colors!) . People always stop me when I’m wearing those t-shirts telling me how much they like that expression.
When I first started buying them years ago, I took the expression literally. But it’s come to mean so much more to me as I continue on my own personal journey. What it means to me today is to “be present” and to be “passionate about what I do in my life”. It’s also about balance, which is one of the most difficult things for most of us to incorporate in our lives.
When I was working in the corporate world, I worked a million hours and reaped the rewards. But I was stressed out all of the time. Not sleeping well and overwhelmed a lot.
Now I make much better choices for myself. I’ve learned what to say “yes” to and what to say “no” to. I’m coming from a more confident, stronger sense of self and taking the best care of myself that I can. This is also what I teach my clients. It’s an amazing journey to hold your self in this place.
Here’s a sample of some questions that I ask myself. I suggest you might want to use them as guidelines, too, when deciding whether or not to say “yes” to something for your business. This is one of the important steps to helping you create more balance in your life so you’re spending your valuable time on things that are important to you. If you don’t get a “yes” answer for each question, don’t do it.
Is this something you truly want to do?
Are you willing to give it all you can?
Does it align with your vision of your business?
Will it move your business forward?
Will you enjoy it?
Here’s a sample of a tapping script to help you with any mindset blocks about saying “no” to opportunities: *
Karate Chop: Even though, I’m afraid to say “no”, I want to find a way to love & accept myself
Karate Chop: Even though, I’m not comfortable saying “no”, because it’s easier to say “yes” and it’s the path of least resistance, I want to love and accept myself
Karate Chop: Even though, I’m afraid to say “no” because I might miss out on some opportunities, I want to love and accept myself and be open to start looking at things differently.
Inner Eye: I’m afraid to say no
Outer Eye: I’m afraid to say no
Under Eye: What if I miss out on something
Under Nose: What if it makes someone mad
Chin: It’s so much easier to say yes at the time
Collar bone: But later on I often regret it
Under arm: Then I’m stressed and overwhelmed because I have so much to do
Liver: I don’t know where to begin and sometimes nothing gets done
Wrist: That’s not a good place to be
Top of head: But what if I took time to think about things before saying yes
Inner eye: What if I paused and took a breath and thought if it was something I wanted to do
Outer eye: What if I took the time to think if this would be something that would help me
*Please remember that tapping is meant to be very gentle and you are responsible for your own mental health.
