Point taken but the relevant part of the blog post that addresses that is as follows:
Quote:
Let their negativity and discouragement force you to react in a positive way ? There are two types of people?proactive people and reactive people. That?s human nature. You can?t change it. Either you?re proactive or you?re reactive?with varying shades in between. There?s no good or bad in this division. Just know that if you?re a REACTIVE person, you can use that to your advantage. You can interpret the criticisms as forcing your ego into a corner. From this corner, you are forced, due to the reactive makeup of your personality, to react in a productive way. By being insulted, a FIGHT mentality ensues and you use this energy to prove your critics wrong. Their hate just makes you stronger and you rise above their negativity. In essence, they pushed you to become a stronger, better, faster, and more efficient YOU. In order to do this, you must learn to channel the negative energy from your detractors into a usable form?many people just let it get to them and discourage them. It?s okay to get upset?just channel it into ?I?ll show them? instead of ?Why me?? or ?They are F?d up, why can?t they accept me or what I?m doing??
