One of the smallest yet hardest words for people to say seems to be the word "yes". It is so small, yet so easy to say but for some reason people have a fear of saying it.
We fear failure, anticipate the worst, and are scared of what lies in the future if we do something out of the ordinary.
"Yes" leads to many open doors, and by rejecting the word "yes", we ignore many of life's different chances we could have. New friends, moving up in the work place, crazy adventures, and so much more.
We let our fears, instead of our creativity and love, guide us to make our decisions because we are too afraid of the outcome.
By saying yes we do more, create more, and see more than we could ever imagine. It allows us to see ourselves in a different light and by giving ourself more opportunities to grow as a human being.
So I am here to say yes. Say yes to it all (well most of it). Say yes to the boy, say yes to skydiving, say yes to the cake, say yes to it all.
Life is short and you never know when it could be over. Live your life with a bunch of yes'. What is the point of saying "no" and living out your life mediocre in the safe zone?
Go out there and say "YES"
