Be positive when negativity surrounds you. Smile when others try to
bring you down. It’s an easy way to maintain your enthusiasm and
focus. When other people treat you poorly, keep being you. Don’t ever
let someone else’s bitterness change the person you are. You can’t take
things too personally, even if it seems personal. Rarely do people do
things because of you. They do things because of them.
Above all, don’t ever change just to impress someone who says you’re
not good enough. Change because it makes you a better person and leads
you to a brighter future. People are going to talk regardless of what
you do or how well you do it. So worry about yourself before you worry
about what others think. If you believe strongly in something, don’t be
afraid to fight for it. Great strength comes from overcoming what
others think is impossible.
