And out of no where, the scavengers arrived. Picking, eating, destroying.
Yet, no one had perished.
You forget about someone else’s nature when you work on yourself. I don’t consider the bad people will do until they do it. I’m no stranger to piggy back riders and people who hijack ladder climbing.
Someone keeps selling me marketing tips – well, they’re trying to. They’re not considering anything except assuming I missed something. The point of being self made is to skip those middle men who live off of your ignorance.
I have no desire to pay for marketing, especially when it’s from a random email that no one asked for. Everyone is now reaching out, either trying to rub elbows with me, or trying to sell me something. In fact, in the last week, I’ve received four emails with offers, strategies or invitations. I’ve already mentioned someone talking vaguely about a vague book. I know that’s redundant but it happened.
It’s a shame that your success can’t be your own. But this is what America was built on. Falsehoods and swindling. Apparently, we don’t know how to react when someone else does well. The only thing we seem to do is attempt to feed off of them, not considering the hard work and discipline it took to get to that point.
I find it comical when people get upset because it doesn’t work, whatever it is. Sabotaging, lying, stealing, trying to take credit for something, manipulation. All for a life I am certain they wouldn’t be able to handle.
My mother died recently and life has been hard – but never mind that I’m a mother and I just escaped hell, right?
I’m not offended. I’m fully aware people are stupid. It is tiresome, and I will continue addressing the issues because someone out there needs to know.
Your success is your own.
