Rise above criticisms

In life, we can’t do anything great without criticism.
Leaders from various levels within the public and private sector would agree with me on this.
Ultra successful people often say that if you don’t want to be criticised, just don’t do anything.
Anyone of great caliber, have faced criticisms.
People such as Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook receives criticisms.
Albert Einstein, the father of physics, received criticisms for his equations and theories.
Bill Gates received criticisms when he started Microsoft, the computer company.
Well, here is the point. Criticisms will always be around.
No matter how good you want to place in the communities, there will always be criticisms.
So it’s up to you as an individual to make those criticism put you down or you rise up.
Life is not a competition.
Everyone is responsible for the way they want to live their own lives.
As I like to put, every day brings us closer to our respective caskets or coffins.
We will not live forever.
So make it your business to overcome any criticism that comes your way.
You are the captain of your ship.
You are your life’s director.
Never let anyone else hold the steer of your life.
Make your life count.
Even if you start something and fail, do it again even if they laugh at you.
You are not here to please any Tom Dick and Harry.
You are here to live your life so live it to the fullest despite criticisms.
There are many who have given up on their dreams that will try to talk you out of your dream.
Never listen to criticisms.
Live your life, raise your standard and make your life count.
See all criticisms as noises and move on.
In the end, it is your life so live it to the fullest.
Don’t waste it over an opinion of someone else.
Criticism is normal.
Those who listen to negative criticism let their dreams die with them.
Those who rise up above criticism stand the test of time and succeeded in their life’s endeavour.
