You want to do better in life! You have hopes, dreams, and desires. And you can see your future and have a plan to get there. When you’re truly confident you turn to your support network and find the dream killers. Many of these negative people have your best interest at heart. And they feel compelled to stop you before you make an insurmountable mistake.
To them it’s better you live a mediocre life than suffer the pain and humiliation of failure.
Motivational gurus, success coaches, and online charlatans will tell you to stay away from the naysayers, “Their negativity is poison to your dreams.”
Before you turn your back on the naysayers and go it alone, ask yourself is there a lesson here.
The way I see it, these ministers of doom and gloom are fantastic at what they do. I mean, they are rocks stars in negativity.
They have the following attributes:
Conviction
They truly believe their predictions of doom and gloom are real. And nothing in the world is gonna change their mindset.
Tenacity
They are true believers and adhere to the words of Winston Churchill, “Never, never, never give up!”
Flexibility
No matter how many new ways you have of explaining why your idea is worthwhile. They will come up with as many, if not more reasons why your idea will fail and result in misery and a lonely painful death.
Just imagine, if you could master these three elements and use them for good. You would have the conviction that nothing in the world is going to stop you from achieving your goal; and the tenacity to keep going until you achieve success. And You have the flexibility to overcome any obstacle that’s thrown your way.
Think of it this way, you are studying the Sith Lord’s skill set to become a master Jedi.
