Do you realize that too often you live your life listening to what others say about you? Why? Listen to your critics and learn what you can from them. Yet, do not become a slave to their opinions of you.
Understanding who you are is not what others see. Remember who you are, where you come from, and what you have to offer. Now step forward, with renewed courage and commitment, and make it real.
Beginning today, though the world may seem to be against you at times, keep in mind that you are working to make the world a better place. Show some progress, and others will soon buy into the vision.
