Why do people make it their job to remind you of your past shortcomings? Have you experienced those who at first mention of new plans make it their business to inform you of how things will fall short as they have in the past? They don’t bother to offer up constructive criticism or enthusiasm for what may come, no they just point out all the things that will probably go wrong. These people are dream killers and should be avoided at all cost. No one needs to hear how what they are attempting to do will fall short; dreams are not maintained in that way. Dreams are fueled by optimism and enthusiasm; they feed off of empowered minds and fearless hearts. Our dreams must be protected from the harsh influences of those who deal in words like cant, wont, or realistic.
We should seek out those who will offer support and give constructive criticism on our future plans. (Emphasis on constructive) There is a fine line between constructive criticism and just criticism and it lies in the hope that you will succeed and not the reasons why you will fail. We all need a support system that will serve as our cheerleaders from time to time. There's no harm in going for it even after you have failed over and over again.
So like Kanye said "keep your love locked down" and protect your plans from those who would have you fail just to make themselves feel like less of a failure.
