I told myself for the longest time that I would not jump into the trend and read Amy Poehler's "Yes Please." I would not do it. I had read Tina Fey's memoir and it now served as a little guide for my life. Well, two days later and I am only fifty pages from the end. Poehler didn't always live the extravagant life and she knows that. Her advice to others, no matter their dreams, are real yet comedic.

1. "Nobody looks stupid when they are having fun."

2. "Your brain is not your friend when you need to apologize."

3. "Your career and your passion don't always match up."

4. "If it's not funny, you don't have to laugh."

5. "I think we should stop asking people in their twenties what they want to do, and start asking them what they don't want to do."

6. "Good for her! Not for me."

7. "You do it because the doing of it is the thing. The doing is the thing. The talking and worrying and thinking is not the thing."

8. "You have to care about your work but not about the result. You have to care about how good you are and how good you feel, but not about how good people think you are or how good people think you look.”

9. "I believe great people do things before they are ready."

10. "Be whoever you are."
