We have all had people tell us what we can do and what we can't-do. It seems that, as soon as we share our vision or dreams, we always have naysayers standing by waiting to throw jabs at them.
You see, when we begin to change our lives for the better, when we start to live our dreams, people begin to get uncomfortable. They will start to judge you, mock you, poke fun at you, and laugh at what you are doing.
But we must stay focused, and not get distracted, and continue to run our race. We must silence our naysayers, without using one word. Our job is not to talk nor debate them, but to show them.
We must learn not to react, instead, look at them with a smile and one of those looks, which says, WATCH ME, I am going to do this thing.
So, when people try to tell you what you cannot accomplish in life, don't get annoyed. But, remember this, they do so because they wish that they had the courage to do what you are doing. It's your dream; it's your vision, so prove you naysayers wrong, not with words, but instead with deeds.
