Protect your enthusiasm from the negativity of others.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Negativity doesn't help me.
The best way of removing negativity is to laugh and be joyous.
Don't focus on the negativity. Focus on the positivity and the people that want you to do well; then, do it for them and for yourself. Sometimes I do things for myself. Sometimes I do things for my family. Sometimes I do things for my friends.
Surround yourself with positive people.
Be positive and laugh at everything.
Enthusiasm is something so positive.
To avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing.
Being accused of enthusiasm is something I'll never live down.
The best way to avoid falling prey to the opinions of others is to realize that other people's opinions are just that - opinions. Regardless of how great or terrible they think you are, that's only their opinion. Your true self-worth comes from within.
Enthusiasm is the best protection in any situation. Wholeheartedness is contagious. Give yourself, if you wish to get others.
