There will come a time when people will dislike you, say negative things about you, and try to bring you down – for no other reason than the fact that they’re jealous of the life you’re creating for yourself. Forget those things and people. Those actions are really just a reflection of their own insecurities than anything really having to do with you or anything you’ve done.
They’re frustrated because you’re doing something they wish they had the courage to do – they wish they could live happily, within the life they’ve been wishing for, but they’re too scared to aim for it themselves.
When this backlash of insecurity comes spilling over on your side, push through it and keep on going. Keep aiming for the things you want and living the kind of life you want live. Forget what anyone else has to say about it. All that matters is that you keep focused on what’s important. Everyone else will fall away eventually – and you’ll still be there climbing towards success.
And if you find yourself feeling frustrated when these negative people come around, read these quotes and keep your head up. Success is really a state of mind. xo
