“No one gives you permission or approval or a permit to lead. You can just do it. The only one who can say no is you.”
- Seth Godin, Tribes
A vision came to me this morning. It was a vision of everything I ever wanted sitting there waiting for me to accept it and enjoy it and use it to build the life of my dreams. But I kept saying, “No, I’m not worthy of this. No, I’m not ready.” But the Universe kept offering it over and over, and I kept refusing to accept it over and over… Finally it occurred to me that I really can have it – all I have to do is quit turning away what is being offered to me. The only one who can say no is me!
How many of you are turning away what is being offered to you right now because you keep hearing how bad the economy is, how difficult it is to find a job, build a business, find customers, etc., etc., etc. ? This is a wake up call if this sounds like you.
Quit listening to whatever is going on outside of yourself and listen to only what you believe. As Seth Godin says, “Waiting doesn’t pay. Saying yes does.”
