Success attracts two types of people: those who want to see you win, and those who wish they had your courage to try.

This week we're diving into:

• Why your early supporters might become your biggest critics

• The psychological truth behind haters at the top

• How to use both praise and criticism as fuel for growth

🥶The Raw Truth

When you're on your way up everyone roots for you because it reminds them of their dreams.

When you're at the top, everyone tears you down because it reminds them that they gave up on their dreams.

For anyone who needs a reminder no one is going to hate you for doing worse than them.

👀 Deep Dive

It's like this: People who cheer for you at the start often become the ones who say mean things when you do really well.

Here's what most people don't understand:

• At first, people cheer because seeing you try makes them think "I could do that too!"

• When they watch you, they see themselves

• When they say "You can do it!" they're really saying it to themselves too

• When they say mean things, they're really mad at themselves

Here's the truth that might be hard to hear: When people are mean to you after you do something great, it's not really about you at all.

It's because you showed them that they could have done it too, if they hadn't given up.

Want to know something interesting? Nobody will be mean to you for doing worse than them.

Think about that for a minute. People only say mean things when you do better than what they thought was possible!

🎬 Actionable Steps

Start today by opening your notes app and creating two lists: "My Dreams" and "My Actions."

Under "My Dreams," write down three things you want to achieve that scare you a little – the kind of goals that make people raise their eyebrows.

Now, under "My Actions," write one small thing you can do today toward each goal.

Maybe it's sending that email, making that phone call, or practicing for 15 minutes.

Each time someone criticizes you or doubts your goals, open this note and add one more action to your list.

Turn their words into fuel. Every weekend, look at your lists and check off what you've done, then add new actions for the week ahead.

This isn't about proving anyone wrong – it's about proving yourself right, one small win at a time.

The trick isn't to ignore the critics; it's to use their words as stepping stones instead of stumbling blocks.
