"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds." - Albert Einstein
Frequently, people are going to be offended by your ideas, plans and
deeds. Remember Joseph? His heartless brothers fake his death, sold him
to human traffickers. Things go from bad to worse, and Joseph ends up in
an Egyptian dungeon. Do you remember why Joseph’s brothers sold him
into slavery in the first place? For his dreams. Have you ever been
called a 'dreamer'? Every true dreamer has to deal with naysayers,
everyone has had more than their fair share and usually they aren't
distant acquaintances.
If your dreams don't scare you, then they are too small. If they can scare you, how much more others? Your dreams will inspire many people, no doubt. But those dreams will also attract fierce opposition: they will cause a wide variety of reactions, including jealousy, rejection and anger. Some people might even want to kill you for your dreams. Simply because you're daring to disrupt the status quo.
You’re going to offend someone, but you’ve got to decide who it will be God, or the naysayers. The best revenge against your naysayers, is massive success.
