Got Naysayers And Critics? Thank Them!

Each time you run across someone who have made your life a difficult journey, you need to THANK that person! Everyone has a purpose in your life. Some people are in your life only to keep you off track. Some are there to discourage you, and make you feel you will never accomplish anything in life. You also have some people in your life who will pretend to be a friend, while all along, they cringe at your success and do EVERYTHING possible to deter your dreams.

Family members and close friends can also be a major source of discouragement because they feel they know you best. They feel they have earned the right to tell you what you have the potential of becomming. Learn how to accept their constructive criticism, and make your OWN decision about how you choose to move forth. Never allow someone to define your destiny!

What is truly funny about all of this is what you gain from those naysayers and critics. I had to learn a long time ago, that they serve a very important purpose in my journey to SUCCESS. If it were not for the naysayers... if it were not for the critics... if it were not for those so-called friends who did everything possible to keep my down, I would have never found the paths I needed to find in order to succeed!

Never forget this life lesson: The thorns placed in your path may hurt at first, and it may seem very difficult to find an alternate route to achieve your goals in life; however, if it were not for those thorns, perhaps you would have continued your journey down the wrong road! The next time someone tells you that your dreams are impossible, thank that person by working harder! The next time someone drains your finances in an effort to keep you from having the funds to start your business, simply thank that person by figuring out another way to raise funds. Who knows? You may discover (as I did) a new source of revenue for a business adventure.

Each of us experience many struggles in life, and depression has unfortunately become best friends with many aspiring entrepreneurs and dreamers with great potential; however, remember that you are not alone. Remember that each time you are rejected... each time you are mocked... each time another thorn appears in your path... each time the sting of betrayal or discouragement rears its ugly head, remember it is only a SIGNAL pointing you down the right path.

Should you be greatful? I am grateful for my critics, and so should you. I am grateful for the naysayers, and so should you. I am grateful for all the times I've failed, and so should you. I am grateful for all the times I was broke and had no money to pursue my dreams, and so should you. I am grateful because it is what led me down the right paths.

How to move forth: As for your critics (and so-called friends), choose to fuel that negative energy into a powerful force behind your wings. Allow the wind from their chatter, the mist from their laughter, and the power from their hatred to propel you forth through all the storms! When you think about it, it really is a beautiful thing to thank the very people who made your journey a difficult task. You need that (what I like to call it) FREE MOTIVATION from them so that you will have one more reason not to give up!
