19 | Handling Haters: Secrets to Managing Hurt, Misunderstanding, and Offense–and How to Turn it into Fuel for Growth

Do you ever hold back from being your brightest self for fear that you’ll be judged? Or maybe you have boldly stepped forward and you’ve been met with resistance, pessimism, fault finding cloaked as advice, misunderstanding, harsh assumptions and offense? 

Maybe you go to great lengths to be careful and respectful, and yet you still find many naysayers, or those who criticize, object, and oppose the good you’re trying to do. The more these little jabs occur, the more you doubt yourself and wonder if stepping forward was the right choice. Maybe you’ve discovered these deep hurts, especially when several of these naysayers are friends and family who you thought would have your back.

If this is you, hang on, my friend. You’re not alone and this episode is especially for you.

“Learn to use criticism as fuel and you will never run out of energy.” -Orrin Woodward

 

“It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.” -Andre Gide

 

“Dear Haters, I have so much more for you to hate. Just watch.”

 

“Haters are my favorite. I’ve built an empire with the bricks they’ve thrown at me.” -CM Punk

 

“I don’t worry about haters…. They are just angry because the truth I speak contradicts the lie they live.” -Steve Maraboli

 

“People are probably not happy with their lives if they’re busy discussing yours.” -Unknown

 

“You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.” -Winston Churchill

 

“Haters don’t really hate you. They hate themselves because you’re a reflection of what they wish to be.”-Unknown

 

“Most haters are stuck in a poisonous mental prison of jealousy and self-doubt that blinds them to their own potentiality.” -Steve Maraboli

 

“Let them judge you. Let them misunderstand you. Let them gossip about you. Their opinions aren’t your problem. You stay kind, committed to love and free in your authenticity. No matter what they do or say, don’t you doubt your worth or the beauty of your truth. Just keep shining like you always do.” -Scott Stabile

 

“Your loved ones will probably be among the first to try to talk you out of greatness. Some of them will try to discourage you from doing something significant because it makes them feel small. Walk boldly into the unknown, through fear and rejection. Don’t let loved ones and haters stop you from changing the landscape of your life. At some point, you’ll be rejected, and it’ll hurt, but they don’t see what you see. Only those with vision can do the impossible. Hold your head high. If people don’t understand you, stand up straight and step forward anyway. Don’t you lose your confidence. You have gifts and you know your potential. Don’t allow yourself to be stifled. Let your ideas come to life. Keep showing up. Let their disbelief fuel your convictions, and thank God that it didn’t keep you down on the ground. You are meant to soar, so surround yourself with eagles and let go of haters that try to convince you that you’re meant for depths and not heights. You’re here to build a legacy, and to pave the way for others. The world needs more eagles. Don’t let other people come in the way of your dreams–even if they’re loved ones. Don’t lose your focus. Don’t allow any haters and halters to become obstacles. Bring the unseen to life. Create the reality you want! Look for the light in the darkness, and move forward especially when you feel alone because that is when it matters most. Don’t stop believing in yourself. You are God’s miracle! You were made for greatness. And you are never, ever alone.” -Kendra Nielson
