b'Why do entrepreneurs like Brendon Burchard, Jenna Kutcher & Jamie Kern Lima say \\u201cNo\\u201d more than \\u201cYes\\u201d\\nOne of the most important skills for a business owner is their ability to say \\u201cNo\\u201d to ideas, opportunities, and offers that are out of alignment with their mission.\\nNow, I\\u2019ll be honest -- this is much harder than it sounds, and it\\u2019s something that I\\u2019ve really struggled with over the years.\\xa0\\nAs a notorious people-pleaser, I\\u2019ve said \\u201cyes\\u201d to doing things that I don\\u2019t want to do because I feel guilty saying no. Not to mention, when you\\u2019re a new entrepreneur (and you don\\u2019t have a ton of opportunities coming your way to begin with), it can be even harder to turn things down.\\nThere\\u2019s a quote I love by author Alain de Botton that says, "What kills us isn\'t one big thing, but thousands of tiny obligations we can\'t turn down for fear of disappointing others."\\nThis, sweet friend, could not be more true. And the good news is, I have a really simple exercise that you can do to determine which opportunities are a \\u201cHeck yes!\\u201d and those you can politely decline -- and it all comes down to asking yourself a single question.\\xa0\\nIt\\u2019s the same question that some of the most brilliant entrepreneurs out there \\u2013 like Brendon Burchard, Jenna Kutcher, and Jamie Kern Lima \\u2013 have used to evaluate what opportunities to embrace, and which ones to pass on.\\xa0\\nIn this episode, you\\u2019ll hear what that question is, along with:\\xa0\\xa0\\n\\nHow you can get crystal clear on your mission (and stay aligned with it)\\n\\nWhat to do when you feel guilty for saying \\u201cNo\\u201d to things\\n\\nWhy NOT returning a favor is 100% OK\\n\\nWhether you\\u2019re just getting started in business or are a seasoned entrepreneur, this is a great listen \\u2013 so get comfy and press play on this episode!\\nRate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts\\n"I love Amy and Online Marketing Made Easy." <-- If that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing my show!
