				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are a million reasons to say no, but few reasons to stand up and say yes.</p>
<p>No requires just one objection, one defensible reason to avoid change. No has many allies&#8212; Anyone who fears the future or stands to benefit from the status quo. And no is easy to say because you actually don&#8217;t even need a reason.</p>
<p>No is an easy way to grab power, because with yes comes responsibility, but no is the easy way to block action, to exert the privilege of your position to slow things down.</p>
<p>No comes from fear and greed and, most of all, a shortage of openness and attention. you don&#8217;t have to pay attention or do the math or role play the outcomes in order to joint the coalition that would rather things stay as they are(because they&#8217;ve chosen not to do the hard work of imagining how they might be).</p>
<p>And yet the coalition of No keeps losing. We live in a world of yes, where possibility and innovation and the willingness to care often triumph over the masses that would rather it all just quieted down and went back to normal.</p>
<p>Yes is the new normal. And just in time.(from seths blog, nice and I thought it would be nice to share).</p>
<p>WHY might you ask&#8230;? BECAUSE WE ARE A COMPANY OF &#8220;YES&#8221;. We take on some of the hardest challenges possible in the world or restoration. Some fun some not so fun. Regardless, we perform: Lead Safe Liquid Paint Removal, Carpentry (new and old), Dry Rot, Water Proofing, Deck Restoration, and so much more.</p>
<p>We also have great working relationships with our Friends over at <a title="&quot;Space Down Under&quot;" href="http://www.spacedownunder.com/">&#8220;Space Down Under&#8221;</a> who can perform any concrete or metal work needed, including house lifting / foundation replacement. Michael M Seibert Construction of which does some of the best high end remodeling I&#8217;ve ever seen. <a title="Charter Construction" href="http://www.chartercon.com/">Charter Construction</a> and they&#8217;re very large commercial HOA remediation projects. And many more&#8230; All of which say YES&#8230;. And if I can&#8217;t, I&#8217;ll get you someone who can&#8230;</p>
