I don’t post a lot but I thought this was worth the time to pound the drum. Long story short is that Panamanians have a “Positive Outlook”. That to me is SO important!

I remember listening to a motivational tape that stressed “DO NOT ASSOCIATE WITH NEGATIVE PEOPLES”, English wasn’t the speaker’s first language but it made the phrase unforgettable to me.
Wondered exactly why I feel so good here in Panama. Being around folks with Positive Outlooks is a BiG reason why!
