WHY SAYING NO CREATES MORE JOY IN YOUR LIFE

The more you say no to in your life, the more space you’re creating for the things that are a yes. When you are intentional about every single thing you say yes to, ensuring it is truly + authentically what you want to fill that space with, then your life shifts overnight. Your home + your life become instantly aligned with who you are in that moment. This is not just about the things you bring into your home, such as furniture, clothing, books, artwork, kitchen aids or whatever. This practice extends far beyond your home + into your life. The conversations you have within your home, the music you play within your home, the meals you cook within your home, the memories you make within your home, the emotions you feel when in your home, all of it.

There is only so much space. If you fill that space with a whole bunch of NO, there is no room left for any YES. This is where your discerning gatekeeper hat comes into its own. When you become intentional + get clear on what you want + what you don’t want in your home and in your life, both begin to flow with ease, effortlessly, all because of the simple decision you’ve made at the beginning, about what you want. Clarity + the discipline to reinforce that clarity at every opportunity is what will allow your vision to manifest into your reality. This invites more joy into your life at every turn. Daily, within your home, you’ll find more joy. Momentarily in your life you’ll feel more joy. The joy won’t be felt only by you. Your joy will ripple out to all those who live in your home + all those involved in your life. Your family, friends, pets, neighbours + work colleagues will all benefit from the joy + from you saying no, so you can say yes. Say no to the good, so you can say yes to the great. Everyone wins.
