ABSTRACT

This class was very different in a lot of ways. I had been through a class in Sacramento and it seemed more like school all over again, which might be good for the students but unfortunately for the majority of people… . I think most people in life need to learn by practice instead of by someone telling you what is right or wrong. The people who taught this class make sure that you did the work outside of class. They wanted you to do something positive and very achievable. What this did for me was one, I found out that you can start a positive cycle in your life almost as simply as a negative one. Everyone knows that when something goes wrong, everything goes wrong. What I didn’t know is when you change a simple thing for the better, it can snowball into a lot more better things.
