Crazy, lucky and greedy?
"Don't let the opinions of the average man sway you. Dream, and he thinks you're crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you're lucky. Acquire wealth, and he thinks you're greedy. Pay no attention. He simply doesn't understand." —Robert G. Allen
Robert G. Allen struck the nail on the proverbial head with this quote. Many people do not understand what we are doing.
Should we stop doing it?
Not on your life!
Should we stop and attempt to explain it?
Nope!
Just keep doing what you're doing. Do it well and with all your heart. Believe in yourself and all of those other self-help mottos!
But honestly, whatever you do, don't give up!
That's my two-cents for the day, WA family!
Enough said!
Best wishes,
Karin :)

"Enough said!? Enough said!" Nope your view on this subject extents to life itself. Your message to me is "reach for the stars" with one direction, you have no choice but UP.
Like you mentioned there are people who don't understand and I agree "accept" them. To me, a good amount of our population share this mentality.
Stay clear away from them cause they sap your energy to do good in whatever you choose. You are FREE Karin. Not many out there see that they are a prisoner of their own being.
GO FOR THE STARS MY FRIEND AND take those who will listen to a great way of thinking. Trash those who don't see the light.
Mahalo for a great post!

Great Post! This is what I try to explain to individuals who tell me I wont succeed. Whatever, at least I am trying. My question to them is "What are you doing extra to get to where you want to go?" Most of them dont have an answer. Again Great post!
Right on time!
The boost that many of us can use right now!
Great post!
All the best,
Diane
I like your quotes, Karin, I totally agree with you, the best way to be successful is to believe in yourself, everything starts from you if you know how to build up self-confidence, you feel strong and ready to do whatever you need to achieve.

Great quote! I read Robert Allen's "Nothing Down" book back in the 1980's I think he is a bit behind the times when he uses the term "average man" meaning both sexes or should I say all genders? Because I have gotten the same flak from both (all?) sides. You must stay true to yourself and your goals to shift your dreams into your reality.
