In life we have a tendency to focus on who doesn’t “show up”, who “isn’t there” rather than focusing on those who do show up and who are there.
We are so fixated on acceptance and being liked by everyone we forget those who actually do have our backs and who stand by their words.
If you throw a party and 200 people don’t show up but 50 people do, are you going to be upset and disappointed? Or are you going to be even more grateful for those 50 people and have an even better time with them knowing that they are there? Ask yourself that honestly.
I often see it by “social media popular” people who get so used to positive comments they start ignoring them, they don’t respond or acknowledge them, HOWEVER, throw a negative comment into the mix and that is where you see their energy goes and their responses light up.
There is both a lot of positivity and negativity in the world, where are you focusing your attention?
I challenge you, next time someone is negative or doesn’t “show up” for you, watch how you react.
