Message: Hi, I thought you might be interested in this article I found. Thick Skin and Unsolicited Advice NOTE: This article contains adult language for emphasis. If you are offended by slang words used to describe poop and donkeys, please do not read this article. Being uncomfortable prevents thousands, (maybe millions) of people from becoming financially free. This is especially true of attorneys. An example: Most lawyers I meet tell me they use their current method of billing because “that’s the way everyone else does it”. Essentially they fear the discomfort of being different. This fear is so great they refuse to buck the current trend. They tell me that people will not work with them if they are different. They say they must conform or face financial ruin. Of course that is a huge pile of crap. It is just fear that prevents them from developing an alternative billing model. Fear and insecurity. Nothing more. But this is not an article about billing. It is an article about you and the way you deal with “unsolicited negative feedback”. We all fall victim to unsolicited feedback offered by other people. In many cases, the person who gives you “a little friendly advice” is not actually being friendly. They are being destructive. Why do they do this? Why give you unsolicited advice that only serves to bring you down? I don’t know the technical term for it but at a deep psychological level, for some people, making others feel less successful fills some kind of need. It happens to everyone and it can get inside your head…if you let it. I fell victim to this just the other day.
