The power of yes

Decisions is what life is about therefor decision is what communication is about.

Yes.
No.
Maybe.

Look at these three words above. Yes will move you forward. Everything you say yes to will inevitable lead to some sort of learning and ultimately to your goal. No will stop you in your tracks. But as long as you straight after saying no to something challenge yourself and end up choosing between yes or no you are still moving and finally you’ll end up saying yes.

Maybe? This is the party killer. Nothing good comes out of it. Nothing happens. Maybe kills passion, maybe kills energy, maybe kills creativity and maybe kills love.

I love YES. NO makes me sad. I hate MAYBE. Yes is the essence of happiness.

Say yes.

    Read the book by William Ury,
    The Power of a Positive No: How to Say No and Still Get to Yes, for more inspiration in the subject.
  • I agree with you but for me, Yes makes the calendar to full.

    After a 2008 of lots of YES personally, I think NO is the next big thing.

    Just like an obstinate 3 year old kid - a no defines who you are.

    Etymologically, the word "define" comes from the Latin "fines" - limit. Only when you say no, you define where the limit is.

    What you do. What you eat. Who you hang out with. What you don't do.

    Sven Ingvars had a different view on this:

    Don't say no, say maybe maybe maybe... http://open.spotify.com/track/7466Ek6gyKxYIm0cx... :)
  • I know how that feels. But that's what I mean with No. No is not wrong as long as you say yes to something else. It's the maybe's I hate :)

    However. I do love Yes ;)
  • Watched the movie "Yes man" the other day.
    I would like to learn Korean. Yes. ?????
