WHEN YOU EXPECTED THEIR SUPPORT

WHEN YOU EXPECTED THEIR SUPPORT

What doesn't appear to be support can actually be support if you view it through a different lens.

We've all had family or friends that, for various reasons, would not celebrate our becoming a better person, getting a promotion, or establishing a new business. RIGHT?

That COULD BE disappointing, but it can also be energizing. HERE'S HOW!

1. They see the potential of you outgrowing them. They have a bit of insecurity when it comes to being the center of attention.

[THEY KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO TOUCH GREATNESS!]

2. Some people dont wish you the worst, but they also don't want you to succeed greatly before them.

[THEY WANT YOU TO WIN, JUST NOT BEFORE THEM.]

3. GOD MAY VERY WELL BE SECURING YOU BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE HAVE WRONG INTENTIONS AND SELFISH MOTIVES WITHIN THEIR SUPPORT.

Make that non support actually be your biggest support and go ACT ACCORDINGLY.

... Read moreIn life, we often encounter moments where the people we expect to cheer us on seem to hold back. Recognizing that this non-support can often be a sign of their insecurities is essential. Many times, those close to us may feel threatened by our potential growth, fearing that we might outshine them. This feeling can lead them to act in ways that might not seem supportive at first glance. Moreover, some individuals wish us well but prefer that our success occurs after their own, creating a complex dynamic of competition rather than cooperation. Understanding this mindset is crucial in reframing our thoughts about their behavior. Instead of feeling disheartened, we can view it as an invitation to push ourselves further. At times, what we perceive as non-support might actually signify protection. It’s possible that those who seem indifferent may harbor ulterior motives that aren't in our best interest. Recognizing these intentions can shield us from negative influences while freeing us to pursue our goals passionately and unapologetically. Ultimately, this experience can be energizing rather than disappointing. Using perceived negativity as a catalyst for personal growth can transform our mindset and empower us to achieve greatness. Surround yourself with positive influences, but do not let the lack of support from others derail your ambitions. Embrace non-support as a stepping stone to success, and remember to act accordingly.

When Support Gets Quiet
Sometimes women stop showing up slowly, not out of malice, but out of discomfort with difference. When support is built on sameness, growth can feel like distance. Different gifts, callings, and skill sets can become confusing when we expect everyone to move, build, and contribute the same way. But

I genuinely believe businesses should pay their employees properly. A livable wage shouldn’t depend on whether or not a stranger decides to leave a few extra dollars. If I receive great service and want to leave a tip, I gladly will. But I shouldn’t feel pressured by a screen, a tip jar, or awkw
