Haters be Damned

Haters be Damned

Master marketer and copywriter Gary Halbert on dealing with #haters…

Gary once wrote to his son, Bond: “Nothing is impossible for a man who refuses to listen to reason…once you set out to actually do something that may elevate your status, many people will tell you it can’t be done.”

Now, Gary wasn’t being facetious. His point was don’t let the haters get to you.

When you have an idea for a business, or personal growth, or a side hustle, you’ll inevitably encounter resistance.

People will try to tell you that your idea is too hard, the challenges to insurmountable, that it won’t work. But, Gary writes, “Just because someone says that you can’t do something doesn’t make them right.” 

Long ago, people KNEW the Earth was flat. Or that the Earth was DEFINITELY the center of the universe. 

Those who said otherwise were ridiculed (or worse). Until they proved themselves correct by continuing to work away.

“It is better to just silently go about proving or accomplishing your goal,” Gary said. 

So work away, haters be damned.
