reminder that if you never trigger people, never attract haters, never face any form of resistance, you’re most likely playing it too safe or living far below the version of yourself that you were meant to become in this lifetime growth creates contrast, and contrast gets noticed abundance-minded people naturally trigger scarcity-minded people because they operate from completely different assumptions about what’s possible (might sound woo-woo but i’ve come to see it as one of universe’s natural balancing forces) not because they hate you personally, but because your presence reminds them of something they’re avoiding in themselves for many people, it’s easier to call someone cringe than to admit it requires a level of courage they’re unwilling to embody a lot of people interpret resistance as proof they’re doing something wrong when in reality it’s often the opposite the moment you raise your standards, leave toxic environments and habits, start operating from abundance, your decisions become a reflection of decisions other people aren’t making that’s when the subtle jabs and negativity start people who supported you when you were still an abstract idea become uncomfortable when you start becoming living proof don’t take it personally hurt people often hurt people as coping mechanism people who are focused on building their own future rarely spend much time trying to slow someone else’s over time you’ll naturally find yourself surrounded by supportive, ambitious people with similar standards only people who see your growth as proof of what’s possible rather than a threat to their own if you start receiving irrational hate when all you’re doing is growing, building momentum, and helping others along the way, treat every bit of negativity as a test of whether you’ll stay committed to your path when the noise starts getting louder every new level comes with new resistance, so embrace it and keep moving forward eventually, you’ll wake up one day and realize you’re too far ahead to even hear the noise anymore
