Here is what it was about. I was watching yes man with jim carrey yesterday and it was really fun.
He was in a meeting with many and there the leader was talking sbout how one should say to almost every situation.
He slso said that keep your mind open to opportunities, as each opportunity brings with it a new possibility.
It was also by opportunities that we even would miss.
After that jims life changed for the better, like getting a promotion at work and a girlfriend too.
What is your view about it? I agree with it, but of course it can lead to people taking advantage too over it as it also happened in the movie, the leader told jim that he got it abit wrong about it |

So here’s something that was pointed out to me recently.
I was asked, without looking good, I tell them how many items in the room were red?
I said no.
I was there and asked if I was told before I entered the room to notice how many things were red, if be able to tell them.
And their point was, if you’re looking around for opportunities, you’re more likely to spot them, and be able to act on them.
It made me think differently about what I’m doing with my life, instead of just going along with everything around me, I can start choosing to get on the rides I want to get on. The ones that look fun and good for me. |

I think the world is full of opportunities but you have to find them. Opportunities are not guaranteed and if you don’t want to risk anything then you will never see them.
Seeing them is the key because they are often hidden and if you are not receptive (I deliberately didn’t say open) to them then they will not show themselves. |

Its an interesting thought but its an actual reality the opportunity to do things with your life, to have an interesting life, interesting and exciting passtimes its just luck basically born in to an adventurous family, well educated, pushed, living in the right place, even your name could push you into the spotlight |

"Everything is about opportunities really. The people enjoying life the most are better at recognising and taking those opportunities." Yes, you are right there, everything is about opportunities too |

"Read the book of yes man by Danny Wallace. It's a very interesting and fun Read.
"
It’s a great book and very funny film , although very different stories and the book is allegedly a true story of a year when Danny Wallace said yes to everthing.
The main point being how taking risks and being open to opportunities takes on unexpected adventures
