Before saying yes to something, ask these questions first!

Before saying yes to a request, task, or project ask yourself the following questions

When was the last time you said yes?

Do you regret it?   

As women, moms, and business builders, we get asked to participate in opportunities every single day!  Before saying yes, or no, create a bit of space to think through how your answer might affect your motherhood, business, and other commitments. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
1. Is there room in my schedule for it?

If not, what am I willing to give up or do differently to fit it into my schedule without sacrificing the things I value most?

2. Do I want to do it? Why or why not?

3. Am I saying yes because I am afraid to say no? 
Are you nervous of what others might think about you if you say no? 

Here’s something you can say to give you time to make the decision that’s right for you! 

“Let me check my calendar and get back with you.” 

4. How does saying yes affect my clients, motherhood,

and business?
Is saying yes a win-win? 

Using these questions you can create some space, and valid thinking options to understand how your answer might affect you in the short and long term in your business and motherhood. ⁠⁠
