The conversation concludes with a discussion of the power of giving and being kind to others.


Takeaways

Online trolls and negativity are prevalent on social media platforms.

Criticism and hate often come from people who are less successful or unhappy.

It's important to not let negative comments affect you and to keep going.

Consistency and perseverance are key in building a personal brand.

Engaging in arguments with trolls is usually unproductive, but there are lighthearted ways to respond. Curate your social media feed to remove negative influences and surround yourself with positive influences.

Evaluate the impact of your interactions with others and consider whether they leave you feeling better or worse.

Cut out toxic people from your life, both online and offline, if they constantly bring you down.

Focus on giving and being kind to others, as it can improve your own well-being and happiness.
