Just Say Yes

In  Dawn French’s novel ‘According to Yes’ Rosie Kitto, a thirty-eight-year-old primary school teacher runs away to New York looking for a fresh start. Working as a nanny and embracing her newly adopted philosophy of saying ‘yes’ to life, Rosie’s enthusiasm brings out the best and worst of those around her with emotional consequences. The 2008 movie Yes Man, starring Jim Carrey sees the main character stuck in a rut. He goes to a self-help seminar and learns to unleash the power of saying YES to absolutely everything. Of course there are times to say ‘No’ but maybes the yes times should outweigh the No times.

Here’s a thought. After a lifetime of saying no, what happens when everyone starts saying yes?

Published by Roy Stannard

I'm someone who doesn't like parameters, barriers or fences. I'll try and climb over them, burrow under them or just pretend they don't exist - until they don't. Sometimes I'll write about the mind in a poetic way, or poetry with neural undertones, or I'll proselytise endlessly about my favourite new band - or one of the old ones. My Blog will give you the keys to the kingdom. A kingdom with no borders, no expectations and, therefore, no failure.. Because I am endlessly empathetic with people, their motivation, their behaviour,their problems and their quest for knowledge, I work with the pioneering Brighton-based homeless, vulnerable women and disempowered school students charity Off The Fence Trust that has tried to redress the equality deficit for over two decades. I produce, host and promote two radio shows a week: The Whole Nine Yards Sundays 3-5pm on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM (www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen) - and Lost Immortals on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM on Sundays 5-7pm.
