A shift in perspective changes everything—your work, your health, your relationships, and your future. And it all starts with a single, positive thought.

Negativity is a thief—it steals joy, purpose, and hope, cutting lives short by 7+ years. It’s why 67% of people feel stressed, 57% experience anxiety, and 54% are emotionally exhausted. Will you dare to break the cycle? By choosing positivity, you reclaim a life of abundance and fulfillment—sharpening your focus to advance your career and create a life you love. It’s the CHOICE to see the good, expect the best, and never ever give up.

Positivity changes the air in the room.

POSITIVITY WARRIOR: THE BEGINNING

The deck was stacked, so Jim changed the game.

Born and raised in Mankato, Minnesota, Jim Sorebo’s life has been marked by disease, adversity, and death.

At 18, he lost his father to Huntington's, a rare and devastating brain disorder. This disease also claimed his sister’s life at just 47. Jim’s mother faced a four-year battle with Alzheimer’s after caring for her daughter, while another sister later passed away from a brain aneurysm that left her bedridden.

Loss after loss, tragedy after tragedy—Jim lived his life with a series of “What ifs” for his own future. Jim’s battle would later be with stage-4 throat cancer.

It was time for a change. He asked his doctor, “What do I have to do to beat this?”

“Jim, you have to believe you can beat this. You have to be positive.”

Game on!

"I have great news,
you're cancer free."
