Word of the Day-Indiscriminately

Indiscriminately (in-dih-SKRIM-uh-nit-lee) -- from the Latin for "not separated" -- means arbitrarily; not based on making careful distinctions.

Example: "Somehow, along the way, I stopped saying 'no' indiscriminately. As an adult, I discovered that saying 'yes' was a better way to win friends and influence people. But I also learned that there were times when 'no' really was the right answer."
