Nothing is more damaging to a child than to grow up with people around them that call them stupid, don’t believe in them, and try to hold them down. Of course for the culprit, this has nothing to do with the child, and everything to do with them.
But let’s take an audit of the people around us adults. Are we around people who don’t believe in us and our potential? Are we around people who tell us we can’t? Are we around people who like us because we are living small and struggling like they are – and who would not like it if we improved?
(Are we one of those people to others? Ut-oh. Different subject!)
Nothing can take the foot off the brakes of happiness and growth in life than to get away from heavy negative influences like this. And while it can be difficult, in the end, it’s simply a choice that takes courage.
It’s not about arguing or proving them wrong. It’s getting your physical body away from them.
Stand up for you.
Thank you, and everyone here at the The Home Transformer is grateful for Larry.
Love this! Physically moving away from the negative changes everything.
