If we really believe in ourselves, who we are, what our purpose is in this world and what we can offer those around us, then barely any measure of criticism or praise that can knock us off our center.
It's just when a man or woman builds himself on the compliments or criticisms of others that their personality begins to take a dive.
To prosper in this world, you actually have to have thick skin. For absolutely no reason at all the wolves will come out after you and try to tear you and your reputation to shreds. Similarly, people around you'll compliment you with hollow praise and attempt to bring your ego up. If we slip into allowing both of these seemingly uncontrollable ways of the world to outline us, we will get caught up in an entire world of hurt.
The solution?
We need to believe strongly in ourselves. While this is proving to be one of the toughest things we have to create it's also one of the most beneficial lessons you can ever learn in life. No matter what, when the difficulties and praise comes, you continue to can maintain who you are. The enticements of life will try to make you change who you are into what the world wants you to be.
Avoid this at all costs. Don't change for those reasons. Instead, change for yourself and who you know you could be in future times. Continue to grow and continue to enhance your life day in and day out because that's what feels right to you.
Then, when you reach the end of the line, you'll always be able to assert that you stayed true to yourself regardless of everything else. To me, that sounds like a pretty happy life.
So start believing in yourself. You never know what you are capapble of until you really go for it.
