What do you currently say "yes" to? What do you currently say "no" to? Do you know? Have you noticed your inclinations towards yes or no? I've noticed that this requires more thought than I thought.

Things I Say "No" To

  Make-up:  Does that make me drab?
  People on the street asking for money:  Does that make me unfeeling?
  Door-to-Doorers:  Does that make me inflexible and complacent?
  i-Anything:  Does that make me a Luddite?
  Listening to private playlists in public:  Does that leave me open to 
  auditory assault?

  Walks
  Your sudden visit -- interrupting a packed day,
