The hardest part in your journey is usually figuring out what your thing is. Once you know what it is you desire, you set your mind and heart to go after it with zeal and determination, thinking nothing can stop you.

Alas, the journey is not usually free from challenges. One of the biggest hurdles you face is feedback. If it’s not a naysayer in your circle, it’s something you read online.

These days most of us suffer from an overexposure to information and communications. The world is so accessible and connected. But with this connection comes a price—more naysayers than ever.

The minute you pause to think about what others are telling you to do (or not do), you interrupt the flow of your action. If you choose to dig in deeper, you can drown in a never-ending stream (more like a tsunami) of information.
