Are you asking for what you really want or only asking for what you think you can get?

You may be leaving possibilities on the table: money, dreams, promotions, and opportunities you didn’t even think were options.

Maybe you are already making courageous asks and getting yes’s. But consider this, if you are always getting a yes then could you have gotten more?
