Happy Monday! Last week’s question was about haters, and on Facebook, I asked:
Why do some people always talk about their “haters?” Do they really think they have something someone else wants?
One of the comments stood out. The person basically said that people hating on you is motivation, the person goes on to ask would we or how much would we strive if it weren’t for haters helping us stay focused.
I can somewhat understand the first part. I can see people using ‘haters’ to stay motivated; it’s like you want to prove them wrong and show them you can be successful.
However, I don’t agree with last part. I don’t do what I do- work on my goals- because I feel like someone is hating; I do it because it’s my purpose, and it’s what I love. And actually, I find that my motivation comes from myself and from positive and encouraging people, not negative ones. So, this week’s question:
Do you need/want haters to motivate you?
As always, I love hearing from you, so answer away!
