I love Jim Carrey’s “Yes Man.” It perfectly shows how different our lives can be when we open ourselves up to opportunity instead of shutting everything down.

When you say yes to something, it’s never that thing that’s the real benefit.

It’s the knock-on effect.

It’s what that thing might bring you 4-10 chess moves down the road.

Every time you say yes to something, you open a world of new possibilities that never would have opened if you stayed closed off.
