Outside noise, the opinions of others, small talk and rumours are all real and true and can take place in any period of your life.
It’s very important to filter out the negativity when you’re following your goals and dreams.
People will talk, it’s human nature.
You’ll lose friends, and find better ones.
You’ll face tough decisions for better outcomes.
You’ll feel like giving up more times than you notice you’re hungry.
The intrusive thoughts seem to become evidence we’ve landed on to prove our narrative of being a failure. It’s not true.
Boundaries become personal attacks for those with victim mentalities.
Growing pains are real, they hurt, you feel uncomfortable, the anxiety and panic sets in and all of a sudden you forget what you’re doing and who you’re doing it for.
Remind yourself, like I have to, that all this is necessary to get to where you want to be in life.

Why sell a product you wouldn’t keep or use yourself?
Guess I’ll just keep this one for myself 😏

Count your blessings for those who show up for you when it all turns to f**ken s**t.
Some show up - most run.

Those who were with you when you were the old you, will either try to hold you there, or build you up and watch you go.
Those you meet along the way, will naturally root for you, because they never knew the old you, so they have nothing to lose by watching you grow and win, mostly with them in your corner.
Business, and being vulnerable in the public eye, brings out the insecure version of you, who you flip and bury whilst you build the bullet proof version.
Those who envy you will try to attack those insecurities so you stay at their level. It’s important you recognise that and leave those people to die by their own sword, because they will.
You can’t be hated be everyone, contrary, you can’t be loved by everyone either.
So shoot your shot, and just watch the game change when you level up.
It may hurt, but it’s absolutely necessary.

It’s all learning, and learning to enjoy the process.
