Recently I was invited to take part in an event which would be both laborious and frustrating to me. The event itself was honorable, but my part, in a sense, would suffocate me. I declined the invitation and have never looked back. It was the right decision.
Sometimes we know it is the right thing to sign on to an endeavor that will suck the good energy from us, but in general, it's best to avoid that kind of endeavor as it does not one any good.
The more we can connect with positive people and positive endeavor, the more energized and better off we'll be. Those good people and that good endeavor exists out there, and it does us well to look for it and engage in it. Onward.
