How I did it
How to say "YES" more to experience more in May 2009
It took me
30 days
It made me
pleased

How I did it: I said 'yes' when I remembered and was positive. Said yes to boring things like helpig around the house, to going out, to drinks, to meeting up, to emails, entered competitions, products, also whims of my own.Maybe a yes 'diary', daily would help a bit more though as I petered out towards the end. Read how I did it…
