NOvember is a 30-day challenge to stop doing something that has a negative effect on your life or the world around you. 


For the month of November, before the holiday chaos kicks in, take a look at your life and choose something to say "NO" to.


It can be a concept such as consumerism or something more specific, like always putting everyone else's needs ahead of your own. 


Say "NO" to the things that don’t support your highest and best self. Say "NO" to the things that are counterproductive to making the world a better place.


Here are a few ideas:

  • Say NO to always putting everyone else's needs ahead of your own

  • Say NO to clutter

  • Say NO to accepting less than you deserve

  • Say NO to impulse shopping

  • Say NO to unhealthy food choices

  • Say NO to social media at the dinner table

  • Say NO to perfectionism

  • Say NO to social injustice

  • Say NO to distractions during the work day

  • Say NO to negative self talk

  • Say NO to events you don't want to go to

  • Say NO to wastefulness

  • Say NO to constantly comparing your life/progress/self to someone else

  • Say NO to a negative influence

  • Say NO to taking on more than you should (spreading yourself too thin)

  • Say NO to caffeine after 4pm

  • Say NO to always looking at your phone and missing out on the world around you

  • Say NO to caring too much about what other people think

  • Say NO to being too busy to enjoy the little things in life

  • Say NO to violence against women - November 25 is International Day  for the Elimination of Violence Against Women                            


You can choose to do it for the month, or you can use the month to kick- start a positive and permanent change.
