Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 бер 2019
- Every "yes" is a "no" to a million other things, some of which you can’t even imagine. But they might still be the best things that’ll ever happen to you.
Make sure you allow them to exist.

3:48 You really nailed this video. I strongly agree with the points here. Saying NO results to a simpler life and less stress.
However, it might suited for individuals who are thinkers than those who are outgoing and prefers a shallower but action filled experience.
Not being able to say no is a sign of low self esteem, and self esteem is critical for success!
Is this true? Are there any people who are successful, but with low self-esteem? How do I build up my self-esteem?
@@kentatakao6863 By valuing yourself, your needs and your dreams first! By putting yourself FIRST. And realizing that other people have no power over you, until you choose to give it to them. There is a lot more to building self esteem. But start with these. And another absolutely crucial thing (without this you won't develop healthy Self Esteem), surround yourself with people who lift you up, and do away with those who put you down. It may not be easy, but you must do it. :)
@@kentatakao6863 There are no successful people with a low self esteem (According to Dan Peña). I haven't heard of any & I can't even imagine a successful person who is not able to say no.
Even if success gets to a pushover, such a person won't be able to keep it.
@@titlespree Just curious, how do you define success?
@@only4anindya For me its based on the quality of three things: Health, wealth, relationships.
*You do not always have to go to that event or take that phone call. Sometimes saying, NO is the best kind of self-love*
By saying no more often, you can focus on the things that really matter to you
Another way to describe this seems to be: “don’t pay the wrong opportunity costs.”
EXACTLY!
Saying YES to everything eventually means dissapointing everyone...
Indeed👍
Exactly what you say I do, don't know why!!!
I very much agree with this. I cannot stand people packing too much shit into their lives. It makes me feel like I'm suffocating and there is no joy left.
Saying no is like changing our perspective in every situation that we need to make decision.
I think this is an even greater problem for retirees. People tend to think our time (as retirees) is less important. We do it to ourselves as well. But this phase of life is too important to live without a bigger vision. And to fulfill that vision requires focus.
Every "YES" is a "NO" to a million other things. It´s worth a thought for sure👍 Cool video
The reason why i say no... Because when i say yes it actually means yes. People respond to this. They know not to bother you and they know that you will come through when you say so.
I just want to say that I appreciate these videos very much. Your content is candid, well-executed and presented. This is helping me to see things in a light that I never have before. For that I just want to say a really sincere thank you!
*Say no now to the mediocre so later on you will be able to say yes to greatness!*
Really enjoying your content. Thank you!
I need to work on that "saying no"...
Why is everyone bolding their comment fonts?
Most of them just found out how to make an asterisk. ;o)
*what are you talking about*
Literally noone:
MattD: Why is everyone bolding their comment fonts?
How do you bold your comments here on UA-cam?
@@GetThePicture Type an asterisk (*) before and after the text you want to be in bold.
It should be a "YES" for you first!!!
Thank you for your videos.
I NEED to say no more often! I feel like such a doormat sometimes!
The animation is beyond awesome! nah??
Saying no is the only way to give your dreams enough time and attention that it deserves 🔥🔥🔥🔥
💪😉👍EXCELLENT!
You lost me on "We're nice people"
😞
Yeah, I have zero problem saying no to most people.
Lol
Does anyone know other channels that speak british accent like this? Thank in advance 🤗🤗🤗🤗

You sound just like curious droid . I swear your voices are almost identical. Not judging . I believe the mondain everyday life, should be shaken up a bit . Makes life more exciting and interesting. I believe if people said yes to things they wouldn't normally do , they would succeed in areas they thought not possible . Cheerio! Chaps slaps and caps ! Lol
That's why I say Nooooooo.....🤗
That movie “Yes Man” though
In the end, he has to give it up though out of stress. The worst part of that movie was him getting a gumjob.
The “release.”
I would say. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
