I have said this before but it always bears repeating.
When you become successful not everyone is happy for you.
Players struggle with this and often I hear from my athletes that their former best friend was now an enemy of a much improved player. This is difficult and I do not know if really I am the one to be imparting wisdom on this subject as it bothers me as much as anyone when someone I thought was my friend is no longer my friend because I am threat to them.
So here are a couple of quotes I really like. This one I ran across yesterday-if you are in a bad situation you have three choices. You can change the situation, you move away from the situation, or you can deal with the situation. Most of the time the first two are impossible and that leaves only three; deal with the situation.
Another saying that evokes a great strategy is:
“if you wrestle with a pig you both get dirty but the pig likes it!”
Not everyone may be happy for you and you some folks are threatened when you succeed.
That should be more their problem than yours!
