Episode 30- Don’t Drink The Haterade

Have you ever encountered someone who is constantly criticizing you or putting you down? Someone who says they want to see you do well but when it comes down to it, they minimize your success? Someone who does not want to see you do better than them? You might have encountered someone who has been drinking what we call the “haterade.” A hater will try and spread rumors about you based on past information, make backhanded compliments, or always try and compare themselves to others. Sometimes, we ourselves may be the haters without realizing it and that’s when it’s time for some self-reflection. One of the best ways to get rid of the jealousy that comes from hate is to embrace our flaws and realize we have our own story to write. That is something no one can take away from us because that is our truth. We need to learn to protect our spirit and energy at all times, still be genuine with others, and work on our own passions in order to create a meaningful life. Being a hater will get us nowhere so we must learn to not drink the haterade.
