Now that we are nearing the end of January, you should be establishing a good stride in the Marathon of pursuing your Dreams. There are those who took off sprinting and are way ahead of you, but don’t worry; most of them will hit the wall as that New Year excitement begins to wear off. You are mentally prepared for the long haul. As those around you notice your persistence growing stronger, most will be inspired as well and want to join your team. You need good people around you so use them. Allow those who are truly for you to be your cheerleaders. A wonderful thing happens when you begin to move in your own direction; you lead others to do the same. But just as you attract those who support you, you will also be targeted by those who despise you: The Haters and The Fakers.
The Fakers are like wolves in sheep’s clothing. They mesh themselves with your real supporters. They high-five you, pat you on the back and celebrate with the masses on your achievements but deep inside they anticipate your failure. They look for opportunities to instill fear and doubt. In a subtle manner the Fakers shoot down your ideas, always willing to tell you why you shouldn’t as opposed to why you should. The Fakers are the worst of the worst. Once identified, they should be immediately eliminated from your team.
The Haters are simple. Their only purpose is to hate on YOU. I give Haters respect because unlike the Fakers they know and embrace their position. A Hater will let you know up front where they stand. They hunt you and create chaos because they want you destroyed. Haters get angry when you seek to climb above and beyond what is “acceptable”. Don’t EVER waste your time trying to convert a Hater….. But you can be strategic in using them as motivation. When you see Haters, smile and keep it moving. The closer you get to the finish the harder they’ll hate. That’s what they do; so don’t keep’em happy, keep’em Hating.
Have you been targeted by The Fakers and The Haters? I’m listening…Holla at ya Gyrl !
