And being tired the next day wasn’t so bad. But, I’m so glad that I did! I had such a fun night and even though I didn’t go to bed until 4:30AM (what the what?) I made memories that will last. I left my house at 12:04am and for a brief moment had flashbacks of being 23 again. It was 11:30pm.I could either say no, and go to bed at a decent hour, or I could say a YES and get in an uber at midnight because why not. Last weekend a friend invited us over to their house because some family was in town. We write about it in more detail in our Inspired eBook.and we challenge the reader to say yes when their normal gut instinct would be to say no. Saying yes has been transformational for Jill and me too.
I love how a simple 3 letter word shook her up and out of her routine. I love Shonda’s approach to being unapologetically who she is and how saying yes changed her life. (On a side-note, can you believe he married a different Kate? I mean come on… my name is Katherine Elizabeth.I’m practically made shoe-in for the royal family. And today you can find me singing on a stage and not married to Prince Charming. I did however take steps in writing songs, performing, singing in front of people, etc. I took no action on hunting Prince WIlliam down and forcing him to marry me. Yes, that’s a silly teenage fairytale dream.but as a teen I also dreamt about standing on a stage in front of thousands of people singing my songs. I really did dream about marrying Prince William. I actually believe that one person can change the world with a simple idea. I have a printed out (non-final) bucket list in my office. I think dreams lay the groundwork for doing.but if you only dream and don’t do, you will probably not go very far. Give me a glass of wine, some soul-stirring jams in my ears and an airplane window seat.that’s pretty much dream heaven. It’s often grand and whimsical.but I love dreaming. There is always something playing out in my head. She talks about the difference between “doers” and “dreamers” and how people out there who are accomplishing things and taking the world by storm are not merely dreamers.they are out there DOING. The title told you that much, right? Here’s what I loved about her story: saying “yes” was her taking action. It was great! Definitely give it a read (or listen) if you are needing a new book suggestion. Shonda is the mastermind behind little TV shows you may have heard of.*cough, cough* 'Grey's Anatomy," "Private Practice," "Scandal," and "How To Get Away With Murder."įor those of you who haven’t read it, (I promise not give away any spoilers) it’s her story about saying YES for a whole year. We both just finished listening to the audiobook “ Year of Yes” by Shonda Rhimes.
