About This Quote

It takes courage and resilience to be true to ourself. We have to know that we will be okay even if others reject or ridicule us. We have to know it won’t destroy us. This quote speaks about the need to stand up for yourself.

If someone is hurling insults at you, they are not trying to help you. On the contrary, they are trying to tear down your confidence and make it difficult for you to succeed. Be careful of people who spread rumors and gossip.

They may be making a point that you aren’t doing something right or that they don’t like you, but in reality they are just looking for an excuse to criticize and isolate you from their friends.
