He said,'You'll never amount to anything'.
She said,'You don't have the brains for this'.
You said,'Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me'.
Of course sticks and stones may break your bones, but words most certainly can hurt.
Any spoken word that is allowed to dissolve into the spirit can stop a person from experiencing the greatness they truly deserve.
What do you do with those words? Do you rise above them? Do you use them to motivate you forward?
...or do you let them sink deep into your soul and hold you back?
There's a couple of things I do to avoid 'words' from destroying the very thing I'm trying to build.
Firstly, I don't waste my energy and time trying to convince anyone, or change anyone's mind. After all, the only thing that triumphs over words is positive action.
Secondly, I infuse myself with positive reinforcement. Read, Study, Train, and then Practice thinking powerful thoughts.
Thirdly, I talk to myself. It's true that whatever you focus on, is the very thing that comes to fruition. If you believe you will fail, then you will and vice-versa.
Think FAIL then FAIL lor!
Keep your head in the game and your eyes on the prize. Visualize yourself accomplishing your goal. Whoo-Whee~~
Lastly, be selective about who you spend time with. Spend most of your time with those who pull you up with their words, and less with those who anchor you down. I'm not telling you to be rude - just be selective.
Unless you are thick skinned like me. No arrowlines can penetrate through the elephant hide of mine.
This is your time!
Get that fire in you!
Although words can temporarily hurt, they will never stop you
