“I often hear the Famous Motivational Speaker Les Brown Say: “Someone’s opinion of you, don’t have to be your reality” Here’s the argument when it relates to these two words and their meanings...I argue that someone’s opinion of you or how you should live your life or run your business is not your reality…

Now I want that to sink in...If someone’s opinion of me or what I’m doing doesn’t have any forbearance on what I conceive my reality to be...Then it shouldn't really matter...Right? Because the truth is: If other people’s opinion, which most likely comes in the form of their experiences and their reality...has such effect on our own reality...then pretty much they can control ours…or just as bad...we can have the same or similar experience or reality... I don’t like that type of feeling lol The fact that we allow other people’s opinions to set the tone at the least to what our reality is...scares the shit out of me….

Now by now, I know y'all know how I feel about control...I like to keep control or advise that the control stays in the eye of the controller...So what do I look like letting someone’s opinion, control my outcome...or whatever they think my outcome maybe… Now I some of you are saying: well we need other people’s opinions… Well, the truth of the matter is: we don’t!!! Can we use other's opinions...Yes and this is how I like to use it...I think you should too...Again...This in itself...what I’m saying is just an opinion...but this is how I like to use it…

I take opinions:

#1. If it’s coming from someone that has what I want or is at a place in life, where I want to be...This person’s opinions or let's call it experience, is coming from a place of facts and not just a viewpoint...and even that I take with an over standing that, my experience, my reality could still be different…

#2. If the opinion helps and furthers my goals and what I’m trying to achieve… If your opinion of what I’m doing or attempting to do is negative and takes away from my optimistic viewpoint on what I think is possible for me, then-No thank you!!! Your opinions have to be rooted in deep or in alliance with my goals and my dreams I have for myself...If it’s not, or in any way, form, or fashion, it conflicts with my natural feeling and inclination about what's possible for me and the process ODF me achieving it...(weather easy or hard) then, again...No Thank You!!! Here’s the takeaway: YOUR REALITY, YOUR EXPERIENCES...CAN ONLY BE MEASURED AND IS OF VALUE WHEN YOU CONTROL THE NARRATIVE...WHEN YOU SET UP WHAT YOUR REALITY WILL LOOK LIKE… LIKE LES BROWN SAYS: ‘OTHER’S OPINIONS OF YOU, DOESN'T HAVE TO BE YOUR REALITY”
