It's Simple Subtraction........
Are the people & situations you deal with daily taking from you?
Some people may attempt to impede your dreams or slow down your progress. They’re jealous and angry because they haven’t figured out what they should do with their own lives…. so they hate you because you do. You have dreams, goals, you already know your purpose, so they’re mad….
Now they spend their days trying to make your life miserable, a complete hell…. They do all they can to impede your dreams or to keep you out of focus….
They don’t want to see you get ahead or realize your dreams…. No. This will mean that you’ll notice that they’re no good for you and you’ll leave them alone.
Some people already know who you are and they also see your potential to attain greatness…. And they already know without you telling them, that you’re too good for them, but they wont let you know that…..
Instead they keep you occupied, and distract you before you can ever realize they’re no good for you.
So they continue to hold you back. Sometimes these are the very situations, and people you already know that you have to shed before you can ever move forward….
A close friend of mine once told me, “If you’re a positive and you’re involved with a person that’s a negative…. Even if you’re a higher value positive, when you two are put together, it will still involve subtraction. Your positive value will still diminish.”
It’s simple mathematics… in this case subtraction…
Are the people you’re around everyday adding or subtracting from who your are?.... Do they discourage or empower you?....
You must try to find situations, or people that will add to who you are. You won’t grow if you’re constantly subtracting.
No matter what, everyday you must make progress toward your purpose, to achieving your dreams. You must stay focused.
