Where does positive begin? Life isn’t black and white. It’s not about right or wrong. Negative or positive is just a new way of saying wrong or right. And, there’s nothing “wrong” about it.

You gotta come over and listen to this with me,” they said. Yahli came over and they stayed up all night listening to these cassette tapes. That was her first experience with a personal development program. Since, Yahli took a dive into the personal development world, reading all the books, going to a number of seminars, and working with a coach.
