Being frugal, conscious of making money, is not a negative thing. That sensibility of creating value and finding value and reinvesting in those customers is what separates great restaurants from the average ones.
I don't think evil people or negative people are inherently interesting all the time. People who are good people getting better at being themselves - to me, that's something that's really interesting to watch.

I like being surrounded by people who have very little fear and very little respect for the past - not in a negative way, but in a positive way. They appreciate everything that's been done, but they constantly look for how to do it better.

One of the worst times to give up on yourself is when you are surrounded by negative circumstances. Your life is too precious to ever allow it to become a prisoner to trials and tribulations.
There are too many positive things unfolding in your daily life. However, you must try not to let your negative experiences distract you from noticing them.
Some changes look negative on the surface but you will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something new to emerge.
I have a lot of anxiety about the red carpet. As a woman, it's uncomfortable to be in a position in which people are judging you, looking at what you're wearing, and criticizing you - not necessarily in a negative way.
