Just Say No!

How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals?

1982, in the US, as part of the ‘War on Drugs Campaign, led by Namcy Reagan,’ the term ‘ Just Say No’ was coined. Sadly, researchers view it as having being ‘ too simplistic’ ( no weight?) and deem it unsuccessful.

My favourite First Lady by far is Eleanor Roosevelt. ( The longest ever serving FL-12 years)  A prolific writer, speaker, and activist for human rights. She encouraged self empowerment. What a woman!

Do one thing every day that scares you.” She said.

Understanding that stepping out of your comfort zone builds character and resilience.

Over the years, I have read many quotes attributed to her. I love this one…

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams”
