Have you ever allowed someone to talk you into doing something you DIDN'T want to do...

...and it actually worked out to YOUR benefit or no regrets or burdens?

I seriously cannot recall a single instance.

Saying "No" has been one of my biggest life improvements over the years.

The saying: "There are wolves and there are sheep" rings truer every single day.

If I knew then what that little shite stain hid from me I’d have said no. If we’d have been pulled over I’d still be in jail. if you’re reading this. I just had a bad day doing a favor for someone not worth doing favors for. Could’ve been a lot worse.

I wife talked me into going to Colorado last year even though, in my mind, I thought it was pointless since we lived ten minutes from a national park. Now I want to move to Colorado.

Wish I would have listened just a little bit earlier.

If you’re talking about the workplace, then yes almost everyone can agree to that

Yeah, I went to a cult meeting. Was disguised as a friendly get together, but I know they were recruiting. Left with mushrooms and an ounce, never went back.

Do they still sell Amway. I haven't heard that company's name in the last ten years. I went to a meeting because I was told that they were having a friendly get together. When that Amway crap started, I immediately got up and walked out. I don't see how anyone can make a living pushing that crap. I had a neighbor that was into that crap big time. I told him that he reminded me of an Avon lady.
