10/27–Trying win over a critic that can’t be impressed is a bad idea. We have to understand and accept that not everyone is going to like us and not everyone is going to agree with us.
Twenty-Five Percent don’t like us and won’t no matter what we do, 25% don’t like you but could be persuaded to like you, 25% like you but could be persuade to not like you, and 25% will like you and will stand by you no matter what.
Life will get more free when we realize that if one person doesn’t like us, life will go on. I could send them flowers every day for two years and it won’t change anything. I could compliment them every hour and mow their lawn every week and they just choose not to like us. You don’t have to have their approval, their ok to be who God meant for you to be. If you will let that go, God will send you people who not only approve you but will support you fully, and celebrate you.
You don’t have to walk on eggshells, you can relax. Quit wasting your time trying to win somebody over, that not matter what, is not going to be won over.
Some are never going to be your friend. I’m just going to believe and trust God to bring me connections. If someone just will not like you, just think that they don’t know what they are missing.
When you quit worrying about that 25%, then God will start moving the right people in your direction. One reason some people will never accept us is that they are so insecure. They think blowing out your candle will make theirs burn brighter.
They push you down to look bigger. They minimize to equalize. God will bring people that will add value and not diminish. Some people just like to argue and fight. If they are not with you, they are with someone else. They are in the fight mode. Even if you do win over one of your critics, two more will pop up.
The best way to answer one of your critics is not with your words but with your actions. The best way is to let them see the fruit of a well lived life.
