Don't Let Anyone Bring You Down

Hey guys!

I'm new to the forum and there is something that i wanted to get off my chest recently after browsing around this forum. I always see people bringing other members down whenever they start a new journey thread or release a method on how to make money online. I just wanted to let everyone that is starting a journey thread to ignore the haters and never let them get to your head. You probably have read some journeys where someone posted an insane journey thread called "5 million in 1 year" or "30,000 a month!" and just get repeatedly bashed on by members saying "you'll never get there" or "This thread is a joke" and it just makes me angry.

All famous internet marketers had haters. If you have any mentors or successful friends you know ask them how many haters they had and what they were doing to bring them down. I guarantee you'll be shocked by the answers you get. Now, if you are really a blackhat member instead of criticizing and or insulting other members. Try and help that newbie out with some suggestions in their journey. Hell, we're a community this is what it's all about.

There's a song for that...

Let them view and bash your journey threads. Let them think you're going to fail.

Gave up on a journey? So what. Everybody has given up at some point in life.

Haters drive my motivation.

Tay Tay Swift - I fucking despise her as a person. As a businesswoman she is a person that anybody should look up to.
Do you think she has always been Miss Perfect Moneymaker? No and neither will most people on this forum.

Some people thrive off of haters - Kanye West

Shit happens, why let somebody who hasn't featured in your life and only a post on the internet ruin your passion and ambitions?
It shouldn't

These hate comments (on journey threads for example) need to motivate you, instead of bringing you down ... it's up to you people

If people point out your weaknesses and hate on you. Don't reply with another negative comment. Instead just be silent and work hard through it all. At the end they'll see you succeed and they're stuck there with nothing.

If you post something foolish and unrealistic then you deserve to be criticized.

We are not all yes men here.

That's not what i mean. If you think whatever they are posting is foolish. Then suggest them other things to do

lol i love this song

I like criticism. It's the worst feeling however. Sometimes when I get criticized in person (for doing/saying/acting something stupid/silly/unnecessary) I have this overwhelming shiver of shame that takes over my body. I can't say anything, my eyes dart around the room, I say "Ehh, uhh, hmm, umm...," I start to breath awkwardly, but in the end I just walk away and self reflect on what I had done. Then I act as if nothing has happened and carry on. I had the expectation people were Yes Men/Women, but I was naive. My relations with people have gotten better over the years, and I am always looking to improve my interpersonal skills. It's kind of challenging when you are comfortable being more self-reserved! One example of this I can give is I used to like to think aloud and talk about things I wanted to do. The more I shared with people the more people had expectations of me to talk about what I wanted to do. But I have a bad habit of changing my mind on what I want to do. This would yield uncomfortable "Uhhs..Didn't do that this weekend actually..." I would lose credibility. I've changed my habits to talk about things after the fact. "Oh yeah, this weekend? Totally went hiking. It was a blast." Conversations become much more fluid. This is kind of a silly example of how I took my own criticism, but it worked out.
