There is a film Staring Jim Carey called Yes Man. It’s a film where he can only say yes to any question. It leads him into all sorts of adventures and mishaps but all turns out well in the end.
This year one of my New Years resolutions was to always say yes. Not to every question but to any diet and health related questions.
I decided to say yes every time I was asked to go for a walk. At the beginning of the year it was a struggle to walk so much but I did it and now I find that I am the one asking to go.
We tried to count how many times we have walked around our block and worked out that it was over 100 times. I am living in the house I grew up in and we moved there when I was 8. At 25 I moved out and then we bought it off my mum about 3 years ago. In all those years I don’t think I have walked around the block that many times as I have over the past few months.
I also decided to say yes to food I was being offered. At the beginning of the the year I wasn’t really liking the change I didn’t like the vegetables, I didn’t like some of the fruit, I especially didn’t like the fish. But because I said yes to these things every day, I now like them – I even like fish now which is a miracle.
It has been hard saying yes to all these things all the time, but I have been told that when you do something for long enough you get to like it. In this case it’s true.
