Warning-Listening to Naysayers Can Damage Your Career Choices
Our loved ones want the best for us, but they can not know or understand where we are in our lives and achieve what we want. There are those who are positive thinkers and those who are negative thinkers, known as the naysayers. There are those people in our lives, the great listeners and are very supportive and there are those who are not. There are also those who know almost everything they think, how to know what about all the best to them, even you! It is therefore important to be careful who you share with your new career plans, when naysayers may have a negative effect on our self-esteem and outlook as a whole. Take a look at Judy’s story. Judy’s Dad is the perfect example of naysayers. Not only has he always rather see the negative side of things, he has never said any problems people what they should or not. No matter who you are or what the situation might be, he has always been glad to give you his opinion. When my friend Judy in high school, and wonder what she would do with her life, she made the mistake of sharing their thoughts with her father. When she told him she was going to college to think of a psychologist, the first thing he was told, “Do you know how many years you go to school to a psychologist or a doctor for that matter now?
You ‘ d in the school are up to your end of the 20s, and that’s when she went full time! Do you know how much medical school costs? spend you would the rest of your life paying off student loans! do also, what do you want a shrink as you keep them straight discharge waste “ weeks later, when Judy told him about her other option, which had become a vet, was his reply,” You know how many vets are already there? Not only would you go to the school over the years, it would make your years with no money from this profession because there is too much competition, it would be a huge waste of time and money, “ what they do never end? That’s right! Judy never went to college to become a psychologist or a veterinarian. In fact, when she graduated from high school, she had not even go to college. Instead, they got a 9-5 job as a secretary, moved from her parents’ house (as fast as she could, perhaps), and their lives take, wherever they can for the next few years.
Now, you understand me wrong. Judy loves her father very much. She tells me he is a great man and he always means well. But she learned over the years that when it comes to any plans or goals, they would put in place for me to say it clearly to control her father about her needs! Judy’s not going to college after high school had everything to do with letting her father’s opinions to himself in the head. She did not really know better at the time because she had grown up surrounded by this kind of negative thinking her whole life. And even after she moved out and was on her own, Judy often found himself following in the footsteps of her father, as he has negative things and became her own naysayers. Judy never lost her love for psychology and for the animals, and years later, when she had a lot of work done on herself, she went back to her love for animals. A few years ago Judy and her husband set up a sanctuary for donkeys. They were, fortunately, it runs since then. I’m sure you know someone in your life, much like Judy’s father is. Whatever their good intentions, they are still naysayers and negativity can trip you through, making you doubt yourself and the plans you made. So beware of this and be careful with whom you share your new career plans.
