I am in love with my haters ❤️☠️

People hate you for one of three reasons. They hate themselves. They see you as a threat. They want to be you.

In life, I have come across many people who hated, hate and will hate me no matter what I do.

Even if I follow Buddha’s advice in living a prosperous and peaceful life, some people will hate me for who I am or who I become.

In his profound book that changed how I look at myself and the world, James Altucher said in Choose Yourself “no matter who you are, no matter what you do, no matter who your audience is: 30 percent will love it, 30 percent will hate it, and 30 percent won’t care. Stick with the people who love you and don’t spend a single second on the rest. Life will be better that way.”

The only obstacle in my life right now that wakes me up at 5 every morning with intolerable anxiety is knowing that the person I loved the most throughout my journey on this planet has stopped talking to me completely.

It’s like I have created a delusional relation with a person that only lived in my mind.

One day I was everything, the next I don’t exist.

How do I get over this?

I eat chocolate croissants every morning 🥐, then I exercise out of guilt.

And I write.

It doesn’t mean I don’t care. Of course I do, but only in my dreams when they come to me.

In life worrying about people who hate me doesn’t serve me any good, instead it creates obstacles that drive my productivity, my learning and my development ability very low.

So today, I will strive and not worry about people who hate me, instead I will redirect such energy and put it into good use with the people who love me.

Train yourself not to worry about the haters, they are part of the package of your life’s journey.

The best fighter is never angry. ~ Lao Tzu
