Yesterday, one of my clients told me "this question has changed my life."

This client is a high achiever working for a tech company. He is on the verge of burnout. He told me this simple question helped him tremendously to make better choices since then: "I now decline projects very assertively, I know what is important, what is not. It is a great way to keep my sanity in check. There are so many distractions!"

When you say YES to this, what are you saying NO to?

When you say YES to this, what are you saying NO to?

This question is a great reminder of the SCARCITY of our time…and most importantly, the SCARCITY of our energy.

Another way of framing it is from André Gide: "Choisir, c'est renoncer" (“to choose is to give up”)

So I thought if it has helped my clients, it could also help you, couldn't it?
