The Fans In The Stands

They don’t determine the outcomes. They might influence it though, if you let them. But they can’t physically change the outcome of your actions.

Just like friends and family, and even your harshest critics, they can say what they want but don’t let them get in your head.

Now if they have positive or sensible points to bring to your attention, you may want to consider them and even adopt them. And sensible does not mean that you like the points made either. They may be painfully accurate and annoyingly prescient and so possibly more valuable than a high five. So reflect on those and use them when possible.

Just don’t let the fans, or critics, in the stands affect your game plan. You have to live a long time with the results, not them.
