Corporate Carnivores-Let the Haters Hate

I know you have heard the phrase, “Let the haters hate,” but that is not how it works in the real world. See, The world is filled with either victims or victors: the hunters or the hunted. Every day you can decide I will be a victim of the haters or I will rise and become a victor. See, haters are carnivorous hunters, always on the prowl for their next meal. They can be easy to spot but adept at hiding in plain sight. To survive as a victor amongst them, you must learn how to identify and neutralize them in your life.

Neutralizing them is not working to find friendships or acting like the hater does not exist. It is about facing them, being aware of their power, and taking it away from them. You can recognize that their words reflect their insecurities and not yours. Most people allow haters to upset them, but in reality, the presence of haters is a thermostat of power you have in your life but have failed to recognize. So, take away their control and stand up to them. It will not be easy, but it is worth the fight. Moreover, you have the power to do it!

Once you can neutralize the haters, you can move on to becoming a victor in your life. There are many ways to do this, but one of the most important is a mindset shift. Do not let the hater’s words define you or your worth. Instead, stand up to the haters who want to drag you down and take power away from them. Don’t be afraid to call out haters trying to control or oppress your potential. You can do this through self-confidence and a supportive community, so reach out and find someone to lean on if needed.
