Say no to no

Isn't it time someone got negative about negativity?

Yes it is.

Look around. The world is full of things that, according to no-sayers, should never have happened.

"Impossible."

"Impractical."

"No."

And yet "yes."

Yes, continents have been found.

Yes, men have played golf on the moon.

Yes, straw is being turned into biofuel to power cars.

Yes, yes, yes.

What does it take to turn no into yes?

Curiosity. An open mind. A willingness to take risks. And, when the problem seems most insoluble, when the challenge is hardest, when everyone else is shaking their heads, to say: "Yes."
