You are not going to succeed by focusing on what people think about you. It's no longer your concern what they think about you. When you get fixated by what people are going to think or say about you because you move out of your conform zone. Step out of your comfort zone and moving into your calling is going to cause the bench rocker to gossip and talk about you. But you can not allow people who are not succeeding in their life cause you not to succeed as well. Expect people are going to talk just don't let that affect you to the point of paralyzation.
