Somebody once perfectly said it...something like...if your value is decided by everyones compliments, then you will be annihilated by their deep criticisms.
I didn't truly understand this quote until recently. But now, I really get it.
I assume this is the very first time in a long time that I have heard about someone in particular saying bad things about me behind my back. For a second, it rocked me. For the minutes to hours after, it fueled me. I put those comments in a special place inside of me that I'm able to go to each day when I need them. The reality is, motivation is many things for many different types of people. Ideally you would like to set an exceedingly positive goal for yourself and work hard towards achieving that goal. Nonetheless the fuel we must employ might actually not always be clean.
Sometimes, it's going to burn black.
I mostly talk passionately about the balance of life...light and dark...especially in the soul, and I think that we will be able to find things within ourselves that may fuel our actions even if the fuel itself isn't pure. I am talking about the times people recounted something hurtful, horrible, rude or simply hurtful in all. For some, those things can positively ruin their ambitions. To be truthful, that really did happen many times with me. I really did not have the belief in myself yet to "do it" regardless of what anyone expounded.
These things that people say, at the end, aren't even really about you. I know cause I have actually been on the other side. I can recollect a point when I could not say good things because I loathed myself. I hated that they were doing it and I could not. I abhorred everything about that person because they could make the sacrifices...they had the willpower...they were actually...doing what I had always dreamed about daily.
You can spend your life blaming people and making an attempt to bring other people down because you have got a crappy life or you can focus upon loving yourself and others, something you do really need to be a positive individual and motivate other people and their dreams. At the end, spewing hate only tears you apart. Karma comes back around in some way or other and takes care of business. Been there too.
You are either for other people or against them.
Be for others. Be for their dreams...that makes you a warm person within. Be for relationships. That cold heart you are harboring is only going to freeze harder and at last split up into lots of pieces. Hate, jealousy, and wrath will cut you in half and you may spend a boatload of years struggling between the loving side and the hateful side. Once again, been there. No matter what you do, other people are going to not like you for some reason. They'll be rubbed the wrong way, they will really not like your hair, your eyes, your nose, your scent, your image...they will find a way. Don't sweat it. You are on the right track. Because honestly, no one has ever talked trash about someone who did not mean something to them in one way or another.
Remember that. Not everybody is going to enjoy peaches.
So you have to actually matter to them. So much, they have been taking time out of their day to speak about you. What an accolade.
So cheers...haters...I tip my cap to you. I must be headed in the right direction.
