A Critic for Success

The easiest way to have no critic is simply to conform (blend) to whatever environment one finds him/herself. That sounds safe and lofty, but yet so bland, insecure, and worthless. The world is looking for answers, not more questions. People who provide answers are handsomely rewarded accordingly. “If you have no critics you’ll likely have no success.” (Malcolm X)

So, stop playing “follow the followers” game. You are unique. You bring something to the table. Use it. Make a difference. Do your bit in moving the collective we forward. Leave your own dent on the walls of history. You were made for such a time as this. Stand up and be counted. Stand up and live. Stand up, stand out, be the difference-maker, and be counted.
