Learning how to develop thick skin is an attribute that all successful people say is necessary to have in life. You are always going to meet with some form of criticism in life no matter what you do or where you go. Many people immediately become defensive, angry, or completely blow their lid and lose their cool altogether. You want to make sure that you do not do this at any point in your life, ever.
Every successful individual, even athletes, have endured some form of criticism in their lives. Many successful entrepreneurs have been told time and time again to just go in and get a job. Put your dream on hold, start earning a living lead the rest of us do, and then go back to your dream later on after you have safety and security in your life.
\"Make Up Cases\"
Everybody knows the story of Bill Gates and how he dropped out of Harvard to take over Microsoft. Do you have any idea how much criticism hinder from everyone he knew when he decided to drop out of one of America's top Ivy League schools? Can you only imagine what your parents and friends would say if you told them you were going to drop out of Harvard? That would be a really scary one to face; at least I know it would be for me. But we all know what happened and how history was made.
Every successful person will face criticism in their lives. The stronger that you stand for something and the more you want to create meaning and significance in your life, you will face off forms of criticism. There is no way around this, so do not try to beat around the bush and dodge it. You must be ready to face it head on whenever it is time for you to confront it.
What I am not saying to do is ignore your feelings and repress your emotions. This will only cause you to have more problems in life and move farther away from success than you could have ever imagined. The way people learn how to deal with criticism is a huge part of their success, no matter whether you are seeking to be the next billionaire, president of the United States, or cure cancer. Do I need to remind you of the story of how the light bulb came to be invented? I think not.
