I hear from women (especially) all of the time about their support system being very negative. Whether its their spouse, or friends, or parents or whoever. Its a REAL, painful thing. We want everyone to see our vision and offer up hands of support and belief. But...the reality is, some just can see the big picture like we do. Maybe they have seen such loss, or failure, or are unhappy THEMSELVES and just can't see past your success or your dreams. They are focused on their own.
Today, I talk to my husband, my BIGGEST supporter. I don't talk to him because I want to showcase my support system, but rather, because I want to question what he think HIS role is as the head of my support team. He's so good about picking up pieces that I take for granted, because he's my husband....but, I've come to realize that that is part of his support plan. He doesn't know how to help me in my business all of the time, so he picks up the broken spots at home, where he can. I hope that you can take his words and have the conversations that are needed, with your support teams...no matter who they are to you.
I think that if you have a negative support, that this is exactly what you need to hear today! My husband isn't a talker and I get him (eventually :) ) to open up about his feelings on support, negative support and what others should do to make sure they are keeping positive people around them! See you inside...
