The Power of Yes
YES is one of the most common words in the English language. Most English-speaking countries use this word either knowingly and unknowingly.
A simple YES can change the cause of your day, and the entirety of your life.
Generally, YES is a word that is used to give a positive reply and the word implies that you have agreed to a question or anything you are being asked by a person
YES is the opposite of the word, NO. Therefore, you can understand valuable or important the word YES is in your life.
Listed below are some important points that lets you know how important and valuable the word, YES is:
It Opens the Door to Opportunities
If you are ever presented with a very wonderful opportunity and you are not sure if you can do it, say YES, because if you say NO, you might lost the opportunity forever. If you say YES, you can learn how to do the task even as you go and then ensure the opportunity is not wasted.
It Overcomes Every Fear of Failure
YES, has its own magic within it because it makes people to overcome any iota of fear they might have. Fear of Failure is very common today in people. We fear failure often for no reason, it is nothing short of a guess.
So, we end up saying NO to many opportunities that might come our way.
When you say YES to challenges and face your fearful moments, you can overcome every fear of failure.
It Generates Curiosity in Us
YES has the ability to generate curiosity in people regardless of the kind of job you do or your personal life. Curiosity is good because it helps us to learn new things and also determine to take risks in our lives.
Anything that creates a spark of curiosity within us or causes us to desire some things that naturally lays foundation to acquiring new knowledge and the chances is that often our instinct always leads us to say YES.
It Improves Your Personality
YES has the ability to improve your overall personality. People always love and appreciate people who are positively minded and say YES to them even if they are facing some challenges and difficult situations in their life's.
People generally dislike those who are negative and would always say NO to them under any circumstances.
However, some situations will come up in your life and you will be required to say NO rather than YES, all you need to do is to stay firm jn your believe.
Regardless of what you do in life, whether you are a parent, a teacher, a doctor, a religious priest, a business owner, a politician, YES can change the cause of your life and improve your personality totally.
It Builds People's Character
Saying YES when life brings challenges builds ones character.
When you refuse to say WHY ME?
Instead you say YES -TRY ME
You will never fear challenges again and you will be better and fully prepared to not only face them, but to DEFEAT them as well.
Remember that when we say YES, people believe more in us, more doors will be opened for us, we get more chances to develop ourselves, and we live more enthusiastically.
The magical words, “YES I CAN” ( YIC), in my opinion, is very crucial and vital, as a first initial step towards any positive thought or action. We can actually experience the unique power and wonder of these words especially during times when we feel very low, when nothing at all is going right for us.
Saying to Ourselves ‘YES I CAN’ with a strong belief and determination can actually infuse a sudden current of zeal, alacrity, energy and cheerfulness in us.
A rush of positive thoughts and energy can drive away all the negativity we were drowned in even minutes back in just a magic second, and this will encourage us to suddenly spring up from our hopeless and passive being into an entirely new high feeling person full of enthusiasm, dynamism, creativity and optimism.
In fact, it is worthy of note that the world’s greatest thinkers, leaders, scientists, adventurers, sportspersons, spiritualists, artistes, writers, researchers, inventors etc. would most certainly have started by truly believing “YES I CAN” initially to increase their confidence level, self belief and the determination they have in all their endeavours, which would have ultimately helped them to achieve the highest pinnacles of success, glory, satisfaction and recognition which they finall achieved.
Also in epics, for instance, from Gita we know how Arjuna, who was initially timid and with no confidence at all in the battlefield became totally transformed after Lord Krishna gave him a soul stirring advice, from initially carrying a negative feeling of guilt and reluctance, to totally transforming himself into someone who firmly believes “YES I CAN” to go ahead and fight boldly in the battlefield, which he did.
We have ups and downs in our daily lives too almost everyday. Whether we experience success at times or get weighed down by repeated failures, the three magical words, ‘YES I CAN ’ should instantly sprout up in our minds so that we can progress from better to becoming the best, from our present despair we can improve to fresh new hope and purposeful action.
Maybe we can also consider the technique of looking at ourselves in the mirror daily and repeating the impact filled words, “YES I CAN.” As we keep doing this, we would actually feel a real and new drive of positive energy which will emerge within us.
What seemed impossible even yesterday, now seems quite possible, easy and within our reach.
This self motivation, devised by some experts could also be very helpful for students, marketing professionals, sales persons, researchers, sportsmen, mountaineers and all people who face challenges at every step while striving to attain their ultimate goals in life.
We should also remember that some physically challenged individuals have successfully peaked even the mighty Mt. Everest.
Some visually challenged artistes have become famous musicians and singers which we know today.
Physically challenged sportsmen have also become Olympic champions, too.
All these great individuals at every stage of their lifes made efforts towards achieving these glorious heights, and would no doubt have told themselves constantly, "YES I CAN" which has helped them to keep moving ahead with confidence forward and with zero negativity and 100 per cent positive approach.
We also know about some miracle cases which happened in the medical line where someone who is terminally ill, even totally paralysed or deep coma patients have recovered fully from their hopelessly miserable conditions to gradual, perfect normalcy.
YES, good medical treatments would have helped them a lot but such miraculous escapes from the risks of total disability or death could only have happened if such patients had felt strong determination, to fight death boldly and live, with a deep felt “YES I CAN ” attitude.
ON a Final Note
I would like to say that whether we are genuinely eager to turn our failures into successes or whether we feel a burning desire to climb rapidly to reach the highest peaks of success, achievement and satisfaction, we should fully ensure that our minds are always kept firmly positioned to constantly think and act in the incredibly powerful “YES I CAN” mode.
YES I CAN!!!
YES YOU CAN!!!
And each one of us indeed can, if only we would strongly believe, decide, think and act, while we always remember to keep repeating the three magical words “YES I CAN” come what may.
