I have a no to deliver this week. It's time to remove one of the eggs in my basket and replace it with a flower.

KathyWheeler My niece recommended this book to me because I have a really difficult time saying no to people. I really liked it because she approaches saying no in such a positive way. 7y

LisaJo @Kappadeemom that is very cool!!! 7y

KathyWheeler I really liked this book because I have such a difficult time saying “no” to people, and she taught me that sometimes it‘s necessary. My niece recommended it to me for that reason. 7y

#TBRtemptation post! I love chalkboard-type covers, don't you ☺️? This is a self-help book with a Christian undertone. Terkeurst discusses how to: deal with overwhelming schedules, say yes when time permits and how to say no when it doesn't, utilize a consistent decision-making process that keeps the short-term and long-term in mind. Sounds good to me! I can always find nuggets of benefit in those who have gone before. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

saresmoore I don't mean to be a spoil-sport, but I hated this book. 😬 8y

SaraFair Lol. I liked the book. However I will say parts were really good and parts (to me) weren't really needed to get the whole picture. 8y

MrBook @kspenmoll 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻!!! @SaraFair Yeah, that makes sense. Looking forward to it 😊. 8y

"The decisions we make dictate the schedules we keep. The schedules we keep determine the lives we live. The lives we live determine how we spend our souls." How simply my life can change course in the little decisions, it struck me how much power is in an answer: yes or no. Lysa's powerful writing changes one's mindset, shaping the decision making process. Wisdom flows through every page, clarity bringing insights
