Day 283 of wisdom
“The fact that somebody is displeased is no evidence that we are wrong.”
Mary Ann Shadd
Life is strictly a personal journey, and achieving one's dreams and life purpose is entirely one's responsibility, no one is obliged to either approve or disapprove our deeds, pursuit, dreams, or actions, it is solely ours to determine what we do, or do not do. No man can please everyone, and anyone who tries to please others do so at the detriment of his own life and future. You are not supposed to please others you are supposed to please yourself, but not in ways that hurts others. In fact, the best way to please yourself is to help others live a fulfilled and happy life.
People's displeasure at you, or your deeds may not be because of the correctness or incorrectness of what you do, or who you are but what they cannot do, or who they cannot become. It could also rise from envy or jealousy. Though no one has the right to criticise what you do, you can wisely decipher what criticisms are constructive and intended to put you right when you go wrong. Criticisms are to be weighed, sieved, and carefully selected, not all are to be taken in hook, line, and sinker, and not all are to be completely dispersed.
Wrong is wrong no matter how many people does it, say or think it is right, and right is right even if no one agrees it is right. So, if you are doing the right thing keep doing it, and if you are doing wrong it will do you a whole lot of good to have a rethink and change your ways because, whatever you sow you will surely reap, however, if you do wrong ignorantly, be intentional about your quest to do good and follow the path of doing good.
Pursue the dreams that makes you happy, go for that which gives you the most joy, live a life of purpose, and irrespective of what people say never consider quitting. As long as you don't hurt anyone in the pursuit of your dreams, and it makes you feel fulfilled. You will be unstoppable if you remain determined, and focused. Shut your ears to the noise of those whose only interest is to bring you down, slow you down or hinder you from achieving your desired goals. Your destiny is yours to achieve, the licence to your greatness is in your hands, do not let yourself down, go for gold.
