The Podcast
Do you say yes often enough?
November 18, 2024
You don’t know what’s going to make you happy
until you try it. The job or the relationship that
looks good on paper may not feel so great at, say,
ten o’clock on a Tuesday. That’s one reason to say
yes to more things, so you can get a better feel for
more things. Saying yes is a habit and a mindset,
and it’s what we hope to inspire in this edition of
Doing What Works.
Here are your show notes…
Irresistible author Adam Alter was one of Katie’s professors at NYU
Stern and “say yes” was his advice.
“I wish I might go back and do the little things you asked me to” is from a
poem by Alice E. Chase entitled “To My Grown-Up Son.”
Saying “yes” (and “yes, and”) is a rule of improv.
Jerry Seinfeld says marriage is a big bet, the only bet of its kind in
which you say, “This feels right; I think I’ll change everything.”
