It's easy to say no...

"It's easy to say no when there's a bigger yes burning."

I don't remember where I read this quote, but it stuck with me. After starting the Natural Makeover Cleanse this past weekend (you can read my blog post about that here), this quote has been in the forefront of my mind.

When I'm having trouble saying no to a request or to something I don't really want but that is easier to say yes to; I will try to think about the bigger yes that will get me to say no. For example, with the holidays coming, it's easier to say yes to eating unhealthy choices or over-indulging with wine, but I will try to remember the "bigger yes" of keeping my body healthy which will hopefully help me say no. I'll just have to make sure that the bigger yes is burning strong!
