We can choose to define ourselves [our smarts, our art, our brand, our character] on who rejects us.

Or we can choose to focus on those that care enough to think we matter.

Not everyone will embrace our art, but not everyone will reject it as well.

Shun people who don’t believe in you… They don’t get it & they won’t get it.

Even if you prove them wrong, they will go on to criticize other people somewhere.

Focus on your true believers. Do your best for them. You owe it to them for their loyalty to you all along

Carrying around a list of everyone who thinks you are not good enough is exhausting.
