“Your self worth is determined by you. Not by someone else’s words or vision of who you are.” – Beyonce
Have you ever had a time in your life where someone said something to you that just stung?
Something that STILL sticks in your head space and fills you with self doubt? Or still totally pisses you off?
On the flip side … have you ever had someone say something to you that changed the course of your life?
I’m always in awe at the power words have.
In an instant someone can build you up or break you down.
Actually in college … me and some of my friends used to do what we called “build ups” … we’d call the other person … get voicemail … and just start ranting and raving about how awesome the other person was.
We did this in a funny and kind of over the top sort of way … however it worked, and to this day I think all the time about how powerful that was.
I think I need to pick up the phone and make a “build up” call right after I write this newsletter actually!
The point here: Negative words will come your way. It sucks …but it’s real. And you will have to work with and have to be around negativity at some point in your life. And how you deal with it will determine your destiny.
Words only have as much power as we allow them to have … and this week … that’s what we are talking about …

Now, I’d love to hear from you … What little things do you do to fight negativity when it comes at you?
