Kick Butt Tip: Do Not Listen To The Dream Stealers
Today’s Kick Butt Tip of the Day is from Michele Ruiz. “If people are doubting how far you can go, go so far that you can’t hear them anymore.”
Ruiz sure knows quite a lot about personal success. Ruiz is a former Los Angeles television news anchor along with being a popular public speaker, author and entrepreneur.
I think we both can agree that Michelle Ruiz is really on to something special. The fact is that if we listen to the average person who may mean well, their comments could actually put our fire out and prevent us from ever pursuing or reaching our dreams and goals.
On the other hand, we both know there are people in this world that would really love to see us not reach our dreams and goals. I refer to these people as human hemorrhoids or dream stealers. Personal and professional jealousy is everywhere. Sadly, some of the people closest to us are envious if we get a new car, a promotion at work or get recognized for doing a good deed.
Starting today, under no circumstances allow anyone to steal your dream. Also, be careful who you take advice from. An idea is to always try to take advice from someone with fruit on the tree. Those who have already been down your road can be of great benefit. Just ask. You may be surprised as to how helpful people can be.
One other thing. As you travel down the path of success, take lots of notes. Keep a diary. Those notes will prove invaluable when you get the chance to help someone down the road. It’s just another form of paying it forward. Someone helped you and you are just returning the favor.
Go get em tiger. God don’t make no junk. You are awesome. Now go be awesome!
