Christina Applegate Tries to Make Things Happen

Posted by Adam

Christina ApplegateCHRISTINA Applegate insists something positive came out of her battle with breast cancer — it motivated her to “make things happen”.

The actress — who underwent a double mastectomy in July 2008 after being diagnosed with the disease — says she is now keen to just get things done.

“I think the urgency to have a good life is definitely a stronger element in my life now than it was before. I think I meandered, waiting for something to happen. Now I really try to make things happen right now,” she said.

“I allow myself to get angry now, which I don’t think I ever did, to feel whatever it is you’re feeling and speak your mind.

“I say ‘no’ so much now and it’s fantastic. I didn’t say ‘no’ before, I said ‘yes’ to everything.”

Applegate recently announced she’s pregnant with her first child.
