Finding your “yes”
It's much easier to say no to things when you can identify your yes. A good yes should align with your core values and leave you feeling fulfilled.
Ask yourself these five questions to find out how you feel about an opportunity. If you answer "no" to any of these questions, you should probably let it go.
- Do you want to take this on?
- Why?
- How much time will it take?
- Do you have the time?
- Does it fulfil you?

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
