It’s hard to understand when, why, and with what intention people make comments!
"Judgment Everywhere"
For example:
- No one asks an alcohol seller whether they have mixed water in the alcohol, but a milk seller is always suspected of adding water.
- If someone doesn’t get a government job, we assume they are not qualified. But if they do get one, we ask, "How much bribe did you pay?
- If someone doesn’t help, we call them cruel. But if they step forward to help, we question their intentions—"What’s their hidden motive?
- If you use a cheap phone, people call you stingy. If you use an expensive one, they mock you—"Showing off, huh?
- If a boy from a distant place gets a job at Google, we praise his talent. But if a boy from our own neighborhood prepares for the same job, we dismiss it as boasting.
This is because we believe that successful people are born in other villages, in other places—but not in our own homes. We find it hard to believe that someone close to us can achieve great things. Our mindset is filled with negativity, as contagious as a virus.
Believe it—there is no one else in the world like you. You can be one of the successful ones if you want.
"Break Free and Succeed"
No matter what you do, some people will always talk behind your back!
So, ignore them and move forward with unstoppable speed.
