    Both words are correct, however in colloquial registers we don’t use no with physical possessions but with attitudes and desires. So in both registers you’ll get to both words. Both describe your physical possessions except for the physical possessions (which you have), and both do this.

    I have no in a sentence like I have no

    • idea what you are referring to.
    • She has no patience with that sort of stupidity.
    • How come we don’t have any proof that what would happen today is inevitable.
    • What does it mean for the societal group to treat us so unfairly?
    • You had no business telling him what you said, I said. I want to hear him. It’s a good conversation. I think I understood.
    • He had no desire to interfere.
    • Why should I change my approach?

    But we use I don’t have any in phrases like

    • I don’t have any money.
    • We don’t have any food.
