Happy Sunday!

Each and every Sunday I spend time reflecting on my week and planning for the week ahead.

So I wanted to share some of my top wins, lessons, issues & thoughts from this past week.

1. The Win: Embracing the Power of Saying No

I’ve always been the kind of person who wants to say yes to everything, but this week, I’ve discovered the power of saying no. I was presented with a business opportunity that, on the surface, seemed like a great idea. However, after weighing the pros and cons and considering my current priorities, I realized that it would be more beneficial for me to decline the offer.

Saying no wasn’t easy, but it allowed me to focus on what truly matters in my life right now. As a result, I was able to make significant progress on my existing projects, and I feel more in control of my time and energy.

2. The Loss: A Missed Networking Opportunity

Unfortunately, not every week is perfect, and this one was no exception. I received an invitation to a networking event that I had been looking forward to for quite some time. Due to unforeseen circumstances and a last-minute scheduling conflict, I couldn’t make it to the event.
