READ THE BOOK!

Sorry for shouting. But I myself didn't realise this was a book before it was a movie. And when I did, I was skeptical at best. But I was on holiday in Thailand with nothing to do by lie on a beach for 5 days. In the back packers I was staying at I found this old ratty copy of the original book. It was written by a British Comedian called Danny Wallace who.. and this bit got me... actually did it. It's a true story! It's hilarious, heart-warming and eye-opening'ly awesome.

The movie just doesn't do it justice (I know it's a cliche).

But seriously. The book was one of the best I have ever read.

["Yes man"] (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1068680/?ref_=ttfc_fc_tt) literally just took the title and the idea that a man starts saying yes to everything. [The book was written by an english man and is way funnier.] (https://www.amazon.com/Yes-Man-Danny-Wallace/dp/1416918345/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1485288804&sr=8-1&keywords=yes+man+book) And everything in the book did happen. They didn't even used the real reason he started to say yes to everything.

    As the title implies, the book basically suggests being more open to all manner of "invitations." Basically, saying "yes" more often. You'd be surprised how powerful the word is, in all honesty, when you really start to think about it.

    In fact, the most incredible times in ones lives are usually a result of saying "yes," rather than "no."

    Almost any great job, girlfriend, or experience, you had to say "yes" to going out in the first place, yes to a date, yes to accepting the job, et cetera. People say "no" a lot and there are good reasons, but sometimes the word just gets in the way of keeping life exciting.

I agree and the original book is also a good source. It helped guided me to opportunities that I never thought I'd have.

I don't think the movie was based on that book! It was based on 'Yes Man' by Danny Wallace. The story of a man in London who actually said yes to everything for a year. It's literally a laugh out loud book...way better than the film.

The book this is based on is absolutely hilarious.link

Pretty sure this is a movie already. But skip the movie and read the book instead. A LOT more amusing.
