How often do you use the word "no" in your day? Probably not enough especially when no doesn't mean no.
The power of "no" fades even with children. And then it envelops your mind that "no" is absence of a meaning.

It's just one syllable that has no power to change the world around you.
So as we gathered together as a family at the fun park, Go Karts were the absolute must. The faster we go, the more we feel alive.
The thing is, my daughter continued to persuade her father that her and I should do the SkyFlyer. This thing goes over 5 or 6 or 7 stories high. And then you are released to a pendulum swing.
My oldest daughter, Keilyn, comes skipping back super excited that WE are going on the SkyFlyer after the Go Karts.
What happened to the NO text?
Something happens as we get older in age. No has a definition that becomes fussy and no longer draws a line in the sand as to what is yes and what is no.
When no doesn't mean no.
We no longer have this defined boundary line. No is more of a maybe, if you ask me long enough, push the right buttons, or clean your room without me asking.
We cater our NOs to what we think people want to hear without definitively expressing a boundary with an answer.
I find this with me and my children, especially as they get older. We soften the word "NO".
When no doesn't mean no.
What do you really do? How do you function without "no" in your life?
You have to have "no" in order to have "yes" to bring success.
The real things that matter in life, you need to be willing to say YES to without hesitation. But --- that means you must say NO in order to say YES.
And when you say NO, you are walking in a stride of confidence.
But when NO has a washed-out meaning, then you're confidence is less than striking and definitive.
So how do you say NO to beef up your YES?
