This great quote brings to mind the mindset one must obtain to achieving any worthwhile goal. Although it’s not an excuse for blatant reckless behavior, it is a major point in the road to overcoming the negative responses of so many who resent others who have shining ambition. Go out and get your dreams.
When discouragement arrives simply go back to this quote and remember your vision and governing values. Write them down and review them daily. Set up a morning planning period for your day. Have a time for weekly planning also where you can see a bit farther out. Then have your monthly and yearly plans also. Don’t worry about avoiding criticism. Just do your best and it will all work out for the better in the end. You will blaze a trail that will inspire and touch others. Be a leader.
There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing.
Aristotle (384 BC–322 BC)
