For example, let&#8217;s say that you want to make the biggest impact in your family, just know that you&#8217;ll get an equal amount of support and challenge, pain and pleasure, etc.<\/p>\n<p>This is true in any area and along with it comes people who will take on both sides, the positive and negative.<\/p>\n<p>This ties right in with your vision and how big (or small) you want to play in the world.<\/p>\n<p>How far are you willing to embrace pain and pleasure or support and challenge?<\/p>\n<p>Because the magnitude of support and challenge you can endure will determine the evolution you can handle.<\/p>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t handle 1 billion people disliking you then don&#8217;t expect 1 billion people liking you. A leader must be able to handle both of those paradoxes. If you want 1 billion people liking you but don&#8217;t want anybody disliking you&#8230;then if all you can handle is 10 people disliking you, then that&#8217;s the size you&#8217;ll go.<\/p>\n<p>Now for you it may not be 1 billion people. Again it all depends on the size of your vision. Just know that as long as you are willing to embrace both sides equally, you&#8217;ll achieve the level of success to that degree.<\/p>\n<p>So be humble to all of the praise you receive and thank those who praise and support you.<\/p>\n<p>Be thankful for those who criticize you and use that as feedback to grow.<\/p>\n<p>And know that both sides are there to wake you up to your own brilliance.<\/p>\n<p>When you are aware of this you grow and your magnificence will shine.<\/p>\n<p>In fact you are already a special person with so much value to contribute to the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever wondered how just a few words can make a big difference in someone&#8217;s life?
