I’m not a big fan of Joel Osteen. You’ve probably heard of the guy. This guy is everywhere. When you walk into a bookstore, chances are you’re gonna see a book of his on the shelf. When you’re in facebook, chances are you’re gonna see people re-sharing his posts.

Even though I’m not a big fan of Joel Osteen, this is a great post and one of the best things he have said. I agree with it.

I get people saying negative things about me all of the time. No matter what you do. No matter what you say, people will always have something negative to say about you. Best thing to do is ignore it all. Thank them for it and take it as a compliment. Be flattered for all the hate. I gotta learn to have a thick skin. I have been learning over the years as you can see and getting better at it. I’m always gonna have haters.

Like I said in a post before, when you’re having people talking all kinds of shit about you, there’s gotta be something special about you that they don’t like. They gotta be jealous of something.

Some of you may ask, why do people get so obsessed with talking shit about me??? In my opinion, I think it’s either my popular web presence, my music or my fitness physique. Maybe a combination of all three??? It’s gotta be something. I don’t know what it is but when you get people attacking you it isn’t because you’re a bad person. You probably are a good person… it’s just that you can’t please everyone, ya know???

You gotta ignore this stuff as best as possible. Live life the way you want to, be yourself and keep pissing people off. You don’t have to be how they want you to be.

When people say negative and opinionated things about you, just don’t respond to it and smile anyway.

I’m always gonna get people attacking me in social networking, youtube and in this blog. I just delete the comment and ignore it. Responding to personal attacks and negativity is just giving them more attention they don’t deserve and it’s gonna make them feel victorious. You gotta have a thick skin and be above the hate.

If so many people are talking about you good or bad… like I said, you’re on the right track… that’s right where you wanna be.
