I lived in the projects and the ghetto, and turned the negative into a positive.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Most of my career was negative.
One way to make a positive out of a negative is that you can put it into your work.
I don't like to see projects that are all black or all white. It's how life is. I do like to make sure that I do a nice black family film; that's like keeping my home base. I do other things, but I like to always come back to a positive family film, because of all the negative influences today.
I'm taking all the negatives in my life, and turning them into a positive.
People are negative no matter what you do.
This place? Nothing positive. OK, I want to say something positive. It's positively a dump.
If you live in a ghetto and really want not to just change your life and your family's life but change your ghetto's life, make your ghetto a good neighbourhood, learn science; try to be like Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs.
I've come to understand that there's always something positive, even in a negative situation.
I got into the habit of filtering out all the good in my life, focusing on only the negative. I'm not sure why I did it, but it's a pretty depressing state.
I have never, ever focused on the negative of things. I always look at the positive.
