Hi Blog,

Who are Trolls?

Generally, they are people who need to project their own perceived shortcomings on others. They can be distracting, harmful and hurtful, if you let them.

So here are 5 quotes I love that I use to make sure trolls don’t make any headway in my mind.

> * _“Don’t let someone in the cheap seats have an expensive > opinion in your life.”_ – RACHEL HOLLIS > * “The weak have one weapon: the errors of those who are > strong”. – GEORGES BIDAULT > * “If you are not in the arena getting your ass kicked on > occasion, I am not interested in or open to your feedback.” – > BRENÉ BROWN > * “In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very > little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and > their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which > is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must > face is that, in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of > junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it > so.” – ANTON EGO, FROM DISNEY PIXAR’S ‘RATATOUILLE’ > * “Being attacked is a sign that you are important enough to be a > target.” – ROBERT GREENE, FROM THE 33 STRATEGIES OF WAR (JOOST > ELFFERS BOOKS)

Using the above as a basis, I look at every troll in this way now…

THEY HAVE SELF-IDENTIFIED AS SOMEONE WHO HAS NO BUSINESS BEING IN MY LIFE, AND THEY INFORMED ME … FREE OF CHARGE

_Leap. Love. Grow._

P.S. Most of the quotes above I have learned by surrounding myself with good, positive, effort-making achievers.

Those are the type of people who are sharing next week at the Empire Builders Summit.
