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 barely any quantity of criticism or praise that can knock us off our center.
It's just when person builds himself on the compliments or criticisms of others that their personality begins to take a dive.
To flourish in this world, you need to have thick skin. For no real reason at all the wolves will come out after you and try and tear you and your reputation to shreds. Likewise, folks around you'll compliment you with hollow praise and try and bring your ego up. If we fall into permitting both of these techniques of the world to create us, we can get caught up in a world of hurt.
The solution?
We need to trust in ourselves. While this is one of the toughest things to do 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 can still can maintain who you are. The enticements of life will make attempts 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 might be in the future. Always grow and continue to enhance your life day in and day out because that really is what feels right to you.
Then, when you finally reach the end of the line, you'll always be able to claim that you remained constant to yourself regardless of everything else. To me, that sounds just like a pretty happy life.
So start believing in yourself. You never know what you are capapble of until you really go for it.
