26: Use This Filter To Answer Every Question - Forever
About this episode
I'm back with another "Take a Walk With John" episode! You all seemed to like the last one, and I felt inspired on a recent walk through my neighborhood, so out came my phone and I hit record.
In this walking episode, I'm talking about when and how to say no. It's a hard thing to do sometimes, and we, as people pleasers, tend to feel we have to overexplain the reasoning behind it. And when saying YES to everything, you are forgetting the things that really matter to you, i.e. your own values and priorities.
I want to show you the filter that I use for every opportunity and every decision in my life and business and how this one filter can give you an answer faster than one of those shakable Magic 8 Balls!
Here's what we talk about in this episode:
* How to define your "Golden Thread Of Values" and how it weaves its way into all aspects of your life
* What traits in yourself and in others help to define your values
* Are you stealing from your family and yourself to give to others?!
* Create a How I Work Document for YOU!
* The hot take for this episode and how you can instantly start to implement my method.
The time is now my friend! I know you're a busy bee, so why are you saying yes to things that don't light you up and are not a fit for your values. It's time to realize that NO is a complete and total sentence and that your values will always back you up with that statement.
Now, I want you to say YES to listening to this episode! See you inside! I just know you will love it!
