Me? I pretty much could care less what most people say about me.

My kid brother has a saying similar: "If you only knew what people thought about you, you'd be shocked at just how little!'

Love that guy! He's the sanest person I know.

Pretty much and what most people think of you is informed by a deep seated need to justify their existence finding fault with others, lest have no relevancy in their otherwise irrelevant lives....

That quote, or a paraphrase of it, I saw for the first time as a teen in one of John Steinbeck's smaller books, might have been "The Pastures of Heaven," not sure. But it was profound, as a self-concious teen ... to realize that all that worrying you did about what people would think ... was kinda ridiculous because they probably weren't thinking about you anyway!!! {^)

It is a good thing to remember no matter how old you are or how you apply it, to your personal life or your business life.

Frankly, I think the list pretty much squares with the genuinely happy folks I know, and the miserable folks I know ... the list squares with what they ain't!
