Hey guys,
I want to talk to you today about building a lifestyle that is attractive to women. So inspired by the book by Danny Wallace, I want you to follow this one piece of advice:
Say YES more!
I committed to doing this seriously for about a month after I read the book and suddenly realised just how much in the past I had been saying NO.
Suddenly I was going to concerts, parties I wouldn’t have previously bothered with, and even a holiday with some friends which turned out to be one of the most memorable trips I’ve ever had.
In order to create more opportunity in our lives WE HAVE TO BE OPEN TO MORE POSSIBILITIES.
We spend a great deal of our energy refusing opportunities and saying no to things which could actually bring us new activities, adventures and people.
Too often we reject the unknown in favour of the familiar, and we wonder why our lives carry on in the same way as they always have without any spectacular shifts in the quality of it.
Now you don’t have to get really analytical or complicated about this; I’m not asking you to take out your “Things to do before you die” list and immediately go skydiving (I’m a bit over-enthusiastic and decided to do just that, but its not for everyone).
Sometimes the little things are the best. I mean, we all have those friends in other sides of the country who once every six months tell us to come visit. Well what if we did? What have you missed all those times in the past by shrugging it off?
What if the next time your friend said “You have to come up to Manchester sometime soon and stay for a weekend, I’ll show you the nightlife” What if you treated this as more than the superficial graces of parting conversation between two friends and surprised the hell out of him by saying “Sounds brilliant, how’s next weekend for you?”.
I don’t care what it is the important part is you say YES! These things are in your power everyday. And believe me when you start to realise it you will get the biggest buzz.
I was walking through London with my friend Andy just the other day and I made eye contact with two attractive females walking in the other direction. I had told him that I would be following this principle. He waited for the girls to walk past, then looked at me with a cheeky grin and said “Go talk to them”, what could I possibly say, I’m a YES man! So I ran (I had to as they were so far away by now) to catch up with them, began talking with them, and we ended up spending our entire night out with them. Amazing what can come from saying YES.
Hiya Matthew,YES this is great advice ,thanks mate keep them coming!!!!
I cant believe i used to super oneitis particular chicks
I learnt the error of my ways…
i just wanted to conquer them rather than really have them as a girlfrienbd really…

is the movie ‘Yes Man’ based from that book?
After I saw that movie I also decided to become Mr YES MAN – and wow just like you said so many more opportunities in life opened up to me!

Yea, that’s the book that started it all, also called “Yes Man” by Danny Wallace.
I wholly recommend it if you’re after a really funny read.
Nathan, just be careful with Facebook! :)
Every event invitation on there is worded “Will you be attending this event?” with the list of possible answers “Yes” “No” or “Maybe”.
You can guess how many birthdays I seem to be turning up at now lol :)
Matt

hahaha yeah I will have to avoid facebook now :p
talk again soon,
Nathan
