They are waiting for you to light up, So that they can blow you off.

When people failed to be something good in life or to achieve something good. They become savages. Since they cant rise, they decide to bring everyone whose rising down.

Once you being defensive in your answer. Just know there is the truth in the question you have been asked, or there is truth in what they are saying to you.

The reason why most of our plans fail it is because when people are giving us a hand in what we do. We have our hands in our pockets or folded. 80 % is on you to make things happen. When people help you they help you with 20 %. If you don't have 80 % percent ready. Your dreams, goals or what you are trying to achieve, will fail even thou there are people helping you. Help yourself with 80 percent, before people help you with 20 percent to achieve your goals and dreams.

When you are truly happy you will realise that there is nothing to prove to people.

Choose not to prove how wrong others are, but choose to show them on how to be right
