How should I assess if I should say yes? This is the daily Disturbance podcast with Anthony Funghemann. The five Rs. The five Rs.
Just think about that, okay? In all you do, Anthony Liccione, try being a wow and not a woe. So let's get a word. Is that a yes?
The five bars. Number one, say yes if it is the right thing to do. Stay in the right, stay in the light, follow the law. Come on, as much as you're able.
Honor your spouse. It's the right thing to do. Number two, say yes if it's the result or the recommendation of a fair process of determining the appropriate course of action. So in the process we as parentsell and I went through with a daughter Hannah revealed that the best decision was to allow her to travel abroad for a special course on television and production.
There was no further debate or argument. We had to honor the result of the decision making process. So when Melissa and I went through the process of finding out if we were meant for each other and the conclusion was a resounding yes onto the wedding day. Number three.
Say yes if the reliability right or the trustworthiness of the offer or the advice without question. When my dad said when you're still alive that he didn't take a particular aspect of my house design where I live right now, it wouldn't work, I didn't think twice. I adjusted it. My dad was a civil engineer with decades of building experience.
When experts think about this guys very carefully and take it in. When experts give you advice in a blink, bet on their recommendation. Read Malcolm Gladwell's book blink. Number four.
Say yes if you will regret saying no. No explanation. Number five, say yes if you will have rest and peace in your heart as you approve a particular course of action. Rest and peace.
I didn't say rest in peace. Okay. Marissa and I were assessing the family know my kids and she should go with me as I took a two week bojul in France during my executive mba. This was years back and it was a global mba.
So I traveled to France, Abu Dhabi to Beijing, to Singapore. So France, Europe from the Philippines. We were thinking of cost of course, my ability to focus and just the timing of it all. Then we had four young kids.
I asked myself to go before the Lord, seek his leading, you know. She came back to me a day after telling me that the word or the scripture told her in specifically Acts 16, okay, and I quote, it's time to go to Europe. That settled it, of course. We said yes and it was glorious.
It was a glorious God blessed time in my pursuit of higher education while strengthening our bonds as a family. So say yes if it is the right thing to do. Number two, if it's the result the recommendation of a fair process of deciding if the reliability or the trustworthiness of the offer or advises without question. Number four.
Say yes if you will regret saying no. Number five, say yes if you will have rest and peace within the five Rs will give us a wow, not a woe when we say yes.
