It's all just an Opinion.

From the second we are born we are a product of Opinion. Of course our parents think we are the most beautiful lil thing they have ever seen. The doctors and nurses where probably looking at us like we where an ugly, wrinkled up, slimy lil thing. It’s amazing how people are effected by what people say or think about them. It’s all just an Opinion. Not everyone is going to think your pretty. Not everyone is going to like your body or hair color or even your skin color. It’s all their Opinion. That’s why you have to Love yourself. You have to hold yourself at the highest regard. Don’t let anyone’s Opinion about you make you feel negatively about yourself. Truth of the matter is, their negative Opinion is more than likely a reflection of their own personal insecurities. When someone complements you, and tells you that they like your outfit, or your hair and tell you that your pretty, it’s also their Opinion and that is what you have to realize. There is always going to be people on your side and there are always going to be people against you. It’s just the facts of life. You can’t please everyone… and that’s OK. It takes a strong person to not be effected by what other people think about them. It’s similar to peer pressure. When our peers are doing something that we may not particularly want to do. Somehow, sometimes we give in even though it’s not something we would normally do on our own. Opinions can change the course of your life. They can actually make or break you. When people are encouraging you to do something it’s their Opinion. When they are being negative about something that you are doing it’s their Opinion. How many peoples dreams do you think have been shattered by another persons Opinion? Caused by people filling their heads with negativity saying things like, that’s a dumb idea, no one is going to buy your product, you don’t have enough experience, you should do it this way, not that way, your not pretty enough. Etc. It’s so important to listen to your own heart and have confidence in what you are doing. You can’t listen to any negative Opinions that people have about you when you are doing your own thing and working toward your dreams. I’m sure people where telling the person who invented Crocs that they wouldn’t sell one pair. Saying who’s going to buy those ridiculous looking rubber shoes? Well, I’m sure the creator is laughing straight to the bank! What if they said, yeah your right It’s just a dumb idea, I’m not going to pursue it. They didn't let people's Opinion of their idea effect them. They had confidence in their product and saw the vision of where it could take them. No one is ever going to see your vision like you will. Not everyone is going understand your thought process, and that’s OK. There are more people out there that will get it, and Love what you are working on. If you’re a designer there will be people that don’t like your designs. You have to believe and know that there are people out there that will Love it. Don’t let some tell you “That design and color is so ugly, no one will buy it”. That is just their Opinion. I could go on and on and give many examples, but I think you get my point. Bottom line, don’t let that negative Opinion about you set in. If you let one person’s negative Opinion about your dreams set in, you may never fulfill your destiny. Love, Live, Give, More. <3

Love always,

Why Love, Live, Give, More?

Love, Live, Give, More is not only the title of my blogspot, it's a motto that I live by. LOVE: for obvious reasons. I truly believe that the world revolves around Love. The reason we strive for things is because we have a Love for whatever that thing may be. We don't work hard to make money so we can buy and do things that we hate. The whole purpose of making money is that we can buy and do the things that we Love. Some people are even fortunate enough to be making money by having a career in doing something that they Love to do. Also, life would be nothing if we didn't share it with the people that we Love. LIVE: we only have one life to Live, so you better Live it! You can stay focused on your goals and still go out and enjoy your life with your friends and family. Don't be so uptight and stressed out all the time. Just relax and Live. For me when I say Live that means being creative. If I woke up one day and all my creativity was gone, that would be the end of me. Creating and developing things is what truly makes me happy. What do you Live for? GIVE: So many people are all about take, take, take without realizing that we reap what we stow. You can't expect to keep eating the fruits from a garden without watering it. Eventually all the fruits will be gone. Don't expect great things to happen to you if your constantly taking. You have to Give in order to receive. That goes for relationships and your dreams aswell. You can't expect things to just happen. You have to Give it your all and invest in your craft in order to see results. MORE: is simply that. Do more Loving, Living and Giving. You will never regret doing More. <3
Love always,
