Just Say "Yes": How one woman's positive mindset took her from barista to CEO

How much power does a positive mindset really have?

Colleen Barry lost her job in the entertainment industry during the dot com bust in 2001. Her unexpected unemployment led her to take a job making pizzas in a wood-fired oven, doing freelance graphic design, and eventually becoming the "lobby barista" of a real estate agency. Today, she's the CEO of the same company where she used to serve espresso to prospective clients. Listen to this week's episode of All It Takes is a Goal to learn how choosing a positive mindset allowed her to climb the ladder and how you can use the same strategies she did to achieve your goals too.
