Drugs, kids: just say NO! Also say “NO” to things that make you feel small, things that make you feel clammy, and things that you just plain don’t want to do. Join me and Joe as I explain how saying “NO” made me taller, and Joe dispenses the best piece of advice he’s ever offered on this show. Also: there is pride because neither of them managed to electrocute themselves. Hurrah!

- [5:25] Do you feel like you have to say yes to everything?
- [9:00] We all know people who are chronically negative.
- [15:00] If people know you say yes to everything, you’re training them to keep asking you for things!
- [16:00] If you’re not enthusiastic about doing the task, then say no.
