"Just settle it - 10% of the people you know won't like you - so focus on the 90% who do" Joyce Myers. For me that - that puts it in a good perspective
ReplyDeleteMy favourite quote on the subject is this little piece of wisdom from Michael J Fox.
ReplyDelete"It does not matter what other people think of you because what other people think is none of your business"
"Diane" (aka, Mom) - That's a great way to look at it. No one will ever be universally liked or approved of. So focus instead on the people who do think good things about you.

ReplyDeleteAs for me, I learned a long time ago you can't please everyone. If you try, somewhere along the line you're going to lose precious pieces of yourself. I once made a broad sweep statement to people I knew: You can love me or you can hate me - I'll meet you somewhere in the middle.
It's impertinent to remember we began writing for ourselves first and foremost. Never forget that one lone reason. (Hugs)Indigo
