If we actually believe in ourselves, who we are, what our purpose is in this world and what we can offer those around us, then hardly any quantity of criticism can knock us off our center.
Imminent disaster is only apparent when a woman or man builds himself on the compliments or falls on the criticisms of others. When this happens, their character is created by the thoughts and opinions of those around them instead of deep belief and will.
If you want to be yourself in this world you also have to have some thick skin.
The wolves and the jokers line the landscape of this world. They will either tear you apart or trick you into believing something that's not really there. They will feed upon you or feed you with energy that you do not need. Don't let these two characters trick you into thinking that you can build your own character around them. Because once you do, they will be gone in a heartbeat and you will be left with no foundation.
The solution?
We have got to trust in ourselves.
To believe in yourself in this world is to take one of the greatest challenges there is. The reason for that is there are so many reasons, people, and voices telling you to be something besides what you are. All of those things are incredibly hard to fight off. But when you can listen to that inner voice telling you which direction to go, you really give yourself a chance to live your best life.
Don't change because other people told you to. Change because something deep inside of you is calling you to it. Change for yourself and who you know you could be in the future. Continue to grow and continue to enhance your life day in and day out because that's what feels right to you.
When you change for yourself and you live a life on your own terms, you always can look back and say that you actually lived. You lived as the man or woman who was the captain of their own ship. That's someone on a mission. That's someone who could change the world.
Believe in yourself. When you really believe in yourself, your entire world could change.
