The idea is that we all do too much. We take on extra projects at work (especially in this economy) that aren't a good use of our time because we want to be seen as team players. We end up on PTA committees, serving as assistant coaches with Little League, organizing our third cousin's bridal shower, serve on multiple committees at our church, volunteer, chaperon the middle school dance, chauffeur our kids to sports (and music/tutoring/second language/etc. lessons), attending pointless meetings at work because someone in another department asked for our input...I'm getting tired just writing it, and I've only scratched the surface!
Individually, these are all great things to do, but collectively, they can overload our lives. And, especially for parents, who have to place a priority on their children's needs, it's easy for their own needs to get lost in the shuffle.
The basic premise of H**l Yes!, is that when something comes up that you will need to commit yourself to, ask if it's a “H**l Yes." If it is, do it! If it's not, it's a “H** No!” This one simple question cuts to the heart of the matter, allowing you to focus on what's most important to you and your family, and compels you to say no to things that fall in the gray area, where you aren't excited about them, but they aren't heinous to you either.
My views on H**l Yes!:
This little book surely packs a punch when it comes to actually slowing down the busy mind and asking ourselves is this a H**l Yes? and if not its definately a H**l No!
I find myself saying "yes" to everyone and almost anything...rarely do I ever say "no", even to my children... I loved the colorful and bright illustrations showing us examples of some things in our lives that we should say H**l Yes to and other's that we should re-think and say H**l No!
When you start making decision in your life you will be able to say "Hell Yes! I've lived the life I was meant to live"!

Kristinia, thanks so much for your review of my Hell Yes book. I'm always glad to hear people find it useful. You're right -- we all do too much. We have to say no to some things to be able to focus on all the important things that are big Yesses in our lives.
Here's to saying Hell No more often!
