When I was in my teens and trying to pick up the ladies... I noticed as much as I was good looking most girls were just wanted to be "friends". It pissed me off... so I did a bit of research and learned something I never tried before...

Growing up my parents always told me "smile and be positive (doing that made me say "yes" a lot more)" well that works in an ideal world (where everyone is honest and real)... but we don't live in a ideal world. So I tried something new... I smiled inside, but on the outside I was neutral and learned to say "NO" a lot more.

I noticed a HUGE shift in my personality, it had NOTHING to do with being negative by saying no (that's just some BS people shove down your throat when you're growing up, "social deviation"). It actually teaches you to build your personal boundaries. By saying "NO" to things you don't like you notify yourself/people around you on what you like and don't like.

Over years of this now, my confidence and self boundary has increased dramatically. By saying "NO" without guilt, made me a stronger man within. I am becoming a whole as I discover my personal boundary, thanks to the magical word "NO".

Keep speaking the truth within you and it shall set you free and change the world around you, into an honest and potentially ideal world. Thank you for reminding us all of this word..... NO

That was a funny clip. I heard lots of No's, and also how to balance it out.

Hey, I couldn't have said anything better myself. Excellent thoughts.

Hey, I'm glad to see you back; you've been thinking about NO!

It's an amazing word. I'm glad you wrote a poem about it. I think I put this on twitter, and digg. I was amazed that it made wrh.com; as they are widely known.

To watch these town hall meeting's go hay wire is incredible, and to further that all the people have to say is; "No, to big brother; we want our country back"

I'm thinking of trying to create that logo I told you.
I'll take the day today to play around with photoshop and see if I can come up with anything.

I'm eager to start real activism. After I have the logo I'll print hundreds or even thousands of copies and start giving them to random people in the streets.

I don't mind spending a bit of money for that.
I think we should have a website or something like that of which we could attach to the logo. That way people that were curious could get to NO more.

I'll bite Sancho! My personal fave.......

How 'bout no!

And my source of course...



My sincere apologies to all crazy Dutch bastards.

And this hale and hearty fellow seems to like no...



I say yes to no Sancho!

Wow, you really don't understand!

Lets see if I can help.

We are raised in a culture of fear in which we learn that we have no choice.
We are taught to be judges and victims so that we forget about our true power.
It is time for a change in the way we behave and perceive our world.
It has nothing to do with the country, it has to do with each individual, with each human that resides on Planet Earth.

Do you even know what it means to be constructive? It seems like you don't understand that concept either since you are basically repressing our expression just for the sake of it without giving back any interesting information.

I would LOVE to take this movement to Native Americans. In my idea they could very well help with the propagation of the message. I think they would be down! I actually think they know a lot better then us about the no. We could probably learn a lot from them to make this movement work even better.

No is not a verb.

Rethink your world.
