Your Yes, Their No

If you say Yes to the call, you’re saying Yes to more than goosebumps and affirmations.

Yes to change is always met with No by those that stand to lose the most by change.

Yes to dreaming and innovating is always met with criticism by the keepers of normal.

Yes to cultivating skills for a craft is often met with a No by pragmatists.

Yes to virtue is inevitably met with a No by those numb to moral conviction.

Your Yes is often others’ No. It’s never easy, often painful, and usually lonely.

Your affirmation must come from within, from a well untainted by others, from an immovable force of support.
