The Power of Saying “Yes”

In a world full of "no's," and "not enough's," why is it so important that we start saying "yes" to ourselves? We all live with choice.

"Where you invest your love, you invest your life."  -"Awake My Soul" by Mumford & Sons Almost 4 years ago, I had just moved to San Francisco.
