Summary:
On this episode of the Act To Live Podcast, Scott and Jaime talked about the courage it took Simone Biles to say, “no” to competing. How our definition of a “success” in any occupation might involved a lot of factors and not just winning. And, Scott and Jaime dive into William Leth’s article, from The Guardian about the power and benefits of saying “no” to something because saying “no” is in our best interest, even if others disagree.
ACTion Event of the Week:
See if you can pick one thing this week that you can make a decision for yourself, and only you. See if you can say “no” because it is in the best interest of your day. It can be small, like “I will choose grapes over grapefruit because I like grapes and I always get grapefruits because everyone else likes them.”
Join us on the next episode of the Act To Live Podcast as we explore community psychology.
