Many people have told how childhood comments about the unlikelihood of their success, ultimately helped propel them to success.
Remember the teacher that said you’ll end up in jail or the friends that said you’ll never make it. Even your parents can influence your decisions by the comments they make. Such things as, “Oh David doesn’t like to play the piano”, or, “Darla just isn’t that sporty”, can shape a child’s view of their options whether you thought it did or not.
Some give up at this point but others see it as their mission to prove those naysayers wrong. The, “I’ll show them” attitude comes out and may be out forever now.
But once you see some success, you can invest in some self awareness and make this raging a part of your past, or part of your early days. Now is the time to want the outcome because that’s your dream, not because someone else fired you up
