There will always be critics.

Use their words as motivation.

A *glimpse of my psychology lecture on student motivation and success.*

The world needs your unique kind of wonderful. So don’t let the critics get you down. Focus on your dreams. Not their doubt. Use their words as fuel for your success and empowerment. The sun always rises. And so will you. ☀️

  Thanks Stubbs! Just like all the naysayers who said you’d never hike the Appalachian Trail. Each cynical word pushs you one step higher towards your best self. 🏔⛰⛺️

I love it. It’s hard sometimes, but there will always be critics so we may as well use their criticism to our advantage.

Aww I love this Andrea. One of the things that’s been present with me is to tune inside for love – to love myself first. ❤ It's so key for me. Lots of loving to you, Andrea! Debbie

So in agreement with this. When you have the fuel you can overcome your naysayers. This works. 😊

  Thanks for your feedback! Transforming negativity into something positive makes all the difference in our energy levels (aka fuel). 💫
