From time-to-time people we know... people really close to us, like our best friend or our spouse or even parents will tell you that you CAN'T do the thing you've set as your goal. I've personally had this happen to me several times and know how hard it is to NOT listen to those people. I've gone as far as not talking to specific people in my life because I knew what they thought was helpful, warning me about the difficulties of said endeavor, would actually erode my confidence. It's not easy, believe me, to tell your mother "Mom, I can't talk to you about this because you won't understand..." but it IS necessary to preserve the sanctity of positive energy around you when you're getting something off the ground.

Does this happen to you?

Tell us, how do you deal with it?
