The best compliments ..

What are the best compliments?  Words of praise?  Being told you are appreciated?  Gifts? There is a lot more ideas there, but my personal favorite compliments are peoples actions or when they never say much, but when they do it is profound.

That happened to me yesterday.  I have been mulling around an idea of business to open in the are I live.  Its always been a dream of mine to be able to open a place like this and be successful.  One thing is for certain, I will be successful, just the road getting there is a slight bit bumpy.  I have talked to a few people about said idea, and I get a lot of slack - seems to be that no one really believes in me.  That's okay - haters are motivators! They tell me that its going to be long hours and a lot of hard work.  No really?! Never would have got that - that's what I do regardless of what the job is - I am fully vested - more like 120% even whenever my name isn't the one on the front door, nor am I personally reaping any of the benefit of my hard work.  I am a pretty selfless person and getting taken advantage of is what I am good at, whenever it comes to working.  Anyhow!  So yesterday, a person I work with said that they would be an investor come the summer for my business idea, because they knew I would be amazing at anything that I do.  That ... that to me is the best compliment I have ever received.  I always believe in myself, even whenever no one else does.  Sometimes its out of spite, but hey whatever motivates you.

This is going to happen, I am sure of it now.  I will start doing all that I have to do to get the ball rolling, with or without anyone else's help, except my investor.

I guess really after typing it all out.  The best compliment is TRUST.  Whenever someone actually trusts you, you feel more confident with your thoughts and visions.  Whenever people give you excuses and/or ask your opinion on something and then do the complete and utter opposite, then wonder why there not getting anywhere, it breaks you down.  As if your words were okay to hear, but you obviously have no idea what you are talking about!

2015 is on a good track so far.  Things look to be a positive year.  I know it will be a tough year, but that's okay.  Good thing I am a very tough person and look forward to big challenges!
