The Audacity Of This B*tch

Then like me, you probably were saying yes to something when you should have said no.

We are never more shocked by someone’s behaviour, then when they do exactly what we expected they would do.

Consider my post from last week. While assessing needs and solutions with a potential client, I had a strong NO building inside of me.

While I want people to be excited to work with me (it’s so much better for us all when we are all really keen), it’s so much more important that people are receptive to learning.

Basically everything I do is about learning. Its transformational. It requires you to change the way you think and behave.

And that means you’ve got to do the work.

You’ve got to commit.

We’ll make sure it’s fun, practical, and will have positive impact for you, and your team.

But if you don’t want to do that, then there is no point in hiring me. You’ll waste your money if you resist what you’re buying from me.

If you want to pay someone else to give you a tick the box kind of training, go ahead, have at it.

But that’s not what I’m about.

So I had this needs assessment and solutions discussion with a potential client and I wasn’t convinced that they were ready to do the work. Too many flags.

Yet they had reached out. They knew and accepted that they had an issue, and seemed willing to invest time and money to address it.

So I swallowed my own No, and proceeded to create the proposal they asked for. I genuinely believe that what I was offering would help them get unstuck so that they could fulfil their potential. They had all the ideas, they were just getting in their own way by not having some key skills.

And I could see their intention was good. They were reaching out and trying.

So when I got a breezy email just hours before the proposal was due (of course I had completed it, I’m a professional) telling me “oh, we’re kinda hesitating so we’re not going to look at your proposal, so don’t bother sending it”…..

The disrespect of my time to leave it to the last minute, and then dismiss it all so casually. Sigh. If they’d just said no thanks earlier I’d have been fine. I respect directness and honesty.

Not gonna lie, I was a pissed though. But mostly at myself. I had felt a No, and I pushed it aside. They just showed the same disrespect to me that I had already shown to myself.

I think it was the slap in the face that I personally needed because I know this, and yet I had slipped back into an old habit.

If you’re like me, you’ve spent a lot of your life saying yes to things just because you are capable of doing it. And if you’re capable, you should just do it right?

A mix of pleaser, hyper-achiever, and wanting to do good in the world. But it has a huge cost. It’s exhausting and leaves little time for what you really want.

One of the things I’m most proud of about myself is that I’ve learned to say no. I’m not perfect, as this story shows, but I more consistently say no when I mean no.

I want to flip this meme to make it about me. I want people to say “the audacity of this bitch” about me. With a smile. Because I’m clear, confident, and make my own choices. I’m quick to say no and leave money on the table because that’s the right choice for me.

One belief suggests that these ports are created by powerful beings or entities, who have the ability to bend reality and create these passages. Another theory is that these ports exist naturally, as part of the fabric of the universe, and only a select few have the ability to access them. Magic ports are often depicted as doorways or gates, leading to different realms or dimensions.

These realms could be fantastical worlds filled with mythical creatures and magical beings, or they could be alternate versions of our own reality. Some even speculate that these ports can transport individuals to different points in time, allowing for time travel and exploration of historical events. Legend has it that those who have managed to find and enter magic ports have encountered incredible adventures and experiences. These ports are said to hold the key to hidden knowledge, extraordinary powers, and unimaginable treasures. However, they can also be dangerous, as entering a magic port is venturing into the unknown, with unpredictable outcomes. In literature and popular culture, magic ports have been a recurring theme in fantasy and science fiction. They are often used as plot devices to introduce characters to new worlds or to propel the narrative forward. Examples of well-known magic ports include the wardrobe in C.S. Lewis' "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe", the TARDIS in "Doctor Who", and the Rabbit Hole in Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland". Whether these magic ports are purely products of imagination or if there is some truth to their existence, they continue to captivate the human imagination. The idea of being able to access different realms or time periods is a tempting one. Perhaps, if we continue to explore the boundaries of science and the mysteries of the universe, we may one day uncover the truth about these magical gateways..

Reviews for "Unlocking the Secrets of the Magic Port Primer: Tips and Tricks"

1. Sarah - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the "Magic Port Primer". The book claimed to teach me all about magic and how to use it, but it was extremely vague and lacked any real substance. The explanations were shallow and I didn't feel like I gained any useful knowledge from reading it. I was hoping for more practical tips and techniques, but all I got was a bunch of fluff. Overall, I would not recommend this book to anyone looking to actually learn about magic.

2. Michael - 1 star - The "Magic Port Primer" was a complete waste of time and money. The author seemed to be more interested in showing off their knowledge than actually helping beginners understand magic. The book was filled with jargon and complex concepts that were never fully explained or broken down. It felt like the author assumed that all readers had prior knowledge in magic, which is not the case for most beginners. I was left feeling frustrated and confused after reading this so-called primer. Save your money and find a better resource if you're serious about learning magic.

3. Emily - 2 stars - I bought the "Magic Port Primer" expecting to get a comprehensive introduction to the world of magic. Unfortunately, that was not the case. The book was poorly organized and jumped from topic to topic without much cohesion. The writing style was also quite dry and uninspiring, making it difficult to stay engaged while reading. Additionally, the exercises and examples provided were not very helpful in understanding the concepts being discussed. I found myself more frustrated than enlightened after reading this primer. I would suggest looking for alternative resources if you're interested in learning about magic.

4. John - 1 star - As someone who was new to magic, I found the "Magic Port Primer" to be extremely confusing and unhelpful. The concepts discussed were not explained clearly, and the book often assumed the reader had prior knowledge in magic. The language used was overly complex, making it difficult to follow along and understand the concepts being presented. I was left feeling overwhelmed and discouraged after reading this primer. I would not recommend it to beginners who are looking to learn about magic.
