American Institute of Positivity
The American Institute of Positivity through the MBA Pageant provides a forum and an environment where Success Seeking Sisters relax, assume self control, dream the dream, and take proper steps to realize the dream come true.
AIP and the MBA Pageant have created Success Seekers Seminars. Success Seeking Sisters attend and learn how to accomplish long and short term objectives. AIP & the MBA Pageant have developed concepts which enable Success Seeking Sisters to soar ahead in mental, spiritual, physical, economic and career goals. Participants take the “Oath of Positivity” which commits all participants to take part in a 17 point personal development program. The Miss Black America Pageant adopted the oath as its creed immediately after it was penned by J. Morris Anderson. The 17 points of the “Oath of Positivity” lift the Success Seeker far above a level of mediocrity. It turns the Seminar into a mental, spiritual, and physical development program, with positive and long-term impacts on successful careers.
THE OATH’S affirmations indelibly persuade each Success Seeking Sister to believe she is a winner, not only in the Success Seekers Program, but in every aspect of life.
The MBA Pageant inspires self belief and promotes complete confidence in one’s ability to achieve any goal set. It ignites the positive forces that exist within Success Seeking Sisters, and motivates the activation of physical, mental and spiritual powers which propel the aspirant to the highest levels of accomplishment. It follows that the 17 points emphasized in the creed represent the crux of what the MBA Pageant is all about..
Hence, the MBA Pageant identifies the potential of Success Seeking Sisters,& confronts them with the reality of their inherent greatness. When this reality is accepted, Success Seeking Sisters experience a sharper sense of who they are, brighter visions of where they can go, clearer revelations of how to get there - and an understanding of how to stay there.
