When you finally get the job you trained for, the house you dreamed of, the relationship you attracted, you can bet that everyone will not be happy for you. Some will even hate you and speak evil of you.
Others will even go so far as to praise you one week and be a willing party to your crucifixion the next.
When you make choices, you invariably leave behind the choices not made. Mixed in among those choices are people who are still back there at the crossroads you left behind...
People who are unwilling to take the actions that lead to success often feel betrayed by you. Those who want to keep the status quo are afraid of how your changes will affect your relationship with them. The backlash that can follow success is not about you at all. It’s about the inner turmoil of those who wrongly believe that your success in some way diminishes them. It doesn’t, of course. Even though the weak and fearful will not be able to share your joy, continue to progress toward your goals, make good choices and enjoy your success.
Some people you will never meet will be inspired by you, and that makes all the difference in the world. And at the end of the day, stay focused on what and who really matters.
