Being a ‘yes man’

Written by Mike

Topics: General

I watched the movie “Yes Man” last night which stars Jim Carrey. It wasn’t a great movie and perhaps a little corny, but I think the idea in the movie is not a bad one.

Most people develop routines in their lives, which is a good way sometime to lead a stable life. What it leads to in many people is boredom and often a mid-life crisis. In the movie Jim Carey leads such a life until he attends a seminar where he then has to say yes to any offer that is presented to him.

He then meets a new girl, is promoted in his job, learns Korean, how to ride a motorbike and fly a plane. I know I have been invited to places and didn’t really want to go, but have accepted the invitation and wound up having the time of my life.

Why not try a day at least where you say “yes” to everything.
