The art of “being positive” is perhaps one of the most misunderstood skills. We think that some people are just born positive and others are not.

People who have developed this ability are able to see the opportunities in any given situation and realistically move forward with skill and perseverance. In this workshop we will focus on techniques to help us build this skill.
