1. Say yes to this project.

I mean really say yes. Not a half-hearted I’m going to try or maybe we will see if this works.

I mean a real yes, boots and all! I’m telling my friends, I’m posting about it on social media…

Like really, every day I am going to seize the little opportunities and I am going to plan the parties and the barbecues and step out of my comfort zone.

Saying yes means finding someone who makes you accountable too. Phoning a friend right now and saying “I am committing to doing these random little acts of kindness for myself. Will you hold me accountable?”

Take a little photo of yourself and put it as your screen saver on your mobile to remind you. Maybe write a status on Facebook declaring the challenge you have set yourself to say yes more often.

When someone asks you out on a date or to do something that’s not really your style, just say yes.

Say yes and take time each day to reflect on where you are at and make a plan for tomorrow.
