30 Yes Quotes, What’s The Worst that Could Happen?: Inspirational Words of Wisdom

30 Yes Quotes

Be inspired by our collection of YES Quotes. Who could know that a three-letter word could be so powerful? Not me until a few years ago, that’s for sure. That three-letter word has changed my life drastically, along with a few no’s chucked in for good measure; I mean, let’s be honest, if you go around saying yes to everything, then you will end up running down the street naked at 1 am after a few drinks… and no one wants that!

Life is no fun when you don’t take risks. If you learn to say yes to life’s critical and not so critical decisions, you will live a much more meaningful and complete existence. You won’t just be cruising through life in 3rd gear; you will slowly start to increase speed and enjoy yourself a bit more! I took that risk when I decided to work on wow4u. I also took that risk when my wife told me she wanted a baby.

A few years ago, out of the blue, my friend asked me if I wanted to travel to Scotland with him. He was leaving a few days later, and of course, I immediately shut him down, saying I can’t just go away with only a few days’ notice! I thought about it for a few hours and then decided, YES, let’s do it! I honestly had the best vacation of my life; I came home feeling refreshed and inspired. And I learned that spontaneously saying yes to something can lead to really great things.

The power of YES is so underrated. It means you never miss an opportunity to gain a new skill or have a bit of well-needed fun. Who knows, that after-work beer you always miss out on could lead to something great! You just don’t know until you try, so just say yes!
