There are folks in this world who thrive on belittling and wearing down others. I don't know what joy they find in this but so many folks seem to. If I could find the motivation behind this attitude, maybe we could come up with an alternative, which would give both a better outlook.
You have people that will tell you every negative thing about you. Well, maybe you don't but I have some that love to give me my negatives, which, by the way, are many. You can do something that you are really proud of and have someone point out the few things you did wrong. You can work really hard and put forth your best effort and have someone point out that someone else did better. Now, if they are giving you constructive criticism to motivate you, that is one thing. If they are giving you all the negatives to try and belittle you, that is entirely different.
So, what do you do? If you listen to all the negativity, it won't be long before you start to believe some of it. I can tell you that contrary to very popular opinion, I am not the biggest idiot in the world. I may be close but I am not the biggest. I am also not the nicest person in the world, as some have stated. And, I am not even close.
Today's word is a quote from Christian D. Larson that says, "Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you greater than any obstacle."
Yeah, there are a lot of folks much more talented than I will ever be. Yeah, there are tons of folks much better looking than I will ever be. Yeah, there are countless others that are smarter than I. The list could go on and on. The point is that I know there is something inside me that will help me overcome any obstacle that might present itself - GOD! If you have GOD, you have it all. Believe in what GOD has given you; He will take you where He wants you!
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
