When we truly believe in ourselves, what we are up to in the world, and what our deep purpose is, there is hardly anything that can knock us off of our course.
It's only when a person begins to build themselves upon the compliments of others or suffers because of their criticisms that things begin to get really shaky. When this starts to happen, the character of the individual is in question because they are trying to appease others instead of truly being themselves.
If you want to be yourself in this world you also have to have some thick skin.
In this world, the wolves are constantly looking for people to tear apart and ruin their lives. This is just an inevitable reality of living. It's part of the game. Similarly, there are going to be people who will surround you and say anything to get a quick buck from you. If we fall into letting both of these scenarios build our characters we get into deep trouble.
So how do you solve all of this?
Developing an iron will and a significant amount of trust.
The journey of building internal belief is one of the greatest challenges there is. There are so many people out there trying to tell you that you can't do it that it becomes very easy to believe that you actually can't. The world is full of people who are always hating on you trying to belittle you in any way possible.
When you decide to make a change in your life, do it for yourself. Change because it's something that you've always wanted to do and it matters to you. Don't do it for anyone else. Don't do it because a magazine told you to do it. Do it because it's part of your vision and your purpose.
Then, when you get to the end of the line, you'll always be able to claim that you kept true to yourself no matter what. To me, that sounds like a pretty happy life.
So start believing in yourself. You never know what you are capable of until you really go for it.
