Kat Cole, former President of Focus Brands, believes saying “yes” has been a key to her success. 🍔
But here’s the twist — she also credits her growth to the power of saying “no.” 🗣

Learning to say “no” can not only save you time but open the door to bigger, more aligned opportunities to say “yes” to. 🔥

Here are some ways to say no without guilt:👇🏼

1. “No.” — It’s simple, and it’s enough.

2. “I’d love to help, but I’m not the right person. Let me connect you with someone who can.”

3. “I can’t offer a donation, but I work in the food industry — I can donate some products. Would that work?”

4. “I really admire what you’re doing, but it doesn’t align with my current priorities. I can’t give it the attention it deserves.”

So, what do you think? Do you often find yourself saying “yes” out of fear of missing out? 👇🏼
