Just a quick reminder that this month’s Coffee Morning is scheduled for this Friday, June 26th. More details are available via the original post.
A Challenge
My challenge to you this week:
Rather than telling someone no, that their idea is bad, or some other negative response, make a conscious effort to turn it into a positive.
Do you have to tell someone no? Okay, but also give the person asking the question something helpful—could be a recommendation on someone else they should talk to or another avenue to try.
Think an idea isn’t the greatest? Tell them what you think could be done to make it better.
On the other side of the conversation? You’re the one doing the asking? Don’t settle. Ask for more information, more feedback, or what you could do differently.
Try it. Then let others know how it goes by leaving a comment here.

June Coffee Morning
Why? Because it has just been too long.
When? Friday, June 26th. 7:30ish – 9:00ish.
Of course, you’re welcome to stop by any time in between.
Yes, I know it’s been too long since we’ve done a Coffee Morning. So let’s just go ahead and remedy that situation right now. Pencil in the morning of Friday, June 26th for the next edition.
As usual, we’ll meet at Java in downtown Boise, corner of 6th & Main.
