“Haha, you missed that chance, I told you that before!
“You will never be able to do that, what were you thinking?
“Look at you... Why would you even try?
You can label these people haters and you could make the choice to hit back in an aggressive or frustrated voice. This happens because you feel a bit insecure about the failures and you start blaming yourself for not making it happen successfully. These people hit you on your weaknesses and you feel the survival instinct to protect yourself against that.
― Albert Einstein
Usually, paying people back by the same coin does not work and it only proves one thing; you care about their opinions. If you want to achieve something, you can not have anything to do with nay-sayers and haters. You need to work on your own game to improve. You need to keep your emotions in check. Like Einstein said, intelligent people ignore.
Once you understand this, you will learn that ignoring people and their opinions and focussing on your own game has great advantages.
People are usually insecure themselves and they take it out on people who try and fail at something, because they do not dare to take changes themselves. Achievers will fail, but they will also improve and come further in life. Once that happens and the results are coming in, people will also judge you.
The funny thing is, once you have made your success, people will give compliments and kiss your ass. You should take nothing aimed at you personal, because these are just opinions as well.
The real payback is the payback through success. Not because you want or need to hit back and get revenge at people, but because you endured despite all setbacks and opinions. You can now claim your success as your own and that is the ultimate price. For you, because you decided not to give in to the nay-sayers and haters. You made it on your own and that should make your proud.
