Did you know human beings are wired to help other human beings? It is wild, and you'll be surprised on the amount of people that say yes to you that you preconceived that they're going to say no and they're going to reject you. Think about it, you say yes more to people than you ask for help because this is the way you are. Because when someone asks for help, they give me the opportunity to give, and when you don't ask for help, you rob people opportunity to give. People just want to help someone, and I'll prove it to you. If you saw a grandma fall over on the street, your instant reaction is to run to her and pick her up.
