Succeed & Be YOU In Spite Of Your Critics

Why the world is full of weak people who always are happy to discourage you from going for your own dreams or being the person you really are inside.

Why it’s your birthright and duty to succeed and be the best version of yourself that you can be, to reach your full potential. Lead by example, and the herd will follow.

Why most people are simply looking for a good leader, a good example to follow and be like.

“All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed, second it is violently opposed, and third, it is accepted as self-evident.” ~ Arthur Schopenhauer, German philosopher, 1788-1860.

“People are often unreasonable,
 illogical and self centered; Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind,
 people may accuse you
 of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway.
If you are successful,
 you will win
 some false friends 
and some true enemies; Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank,
 people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, 
someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness,
 they may be jealous; Be happy anyway.
The good you do today,
 people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have,
 and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis,
 it is between you and God;
It was never between
 you and them
 anyway.
We can do no great things. Only small things
 with Great Love.” ~ Mother Teresa

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” ~ from “A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles,” Harper Collins, 1992. From Chapter 7, Section 3
