The only thing worse than someone who hasn’t read ANY books is someone who has only read ONE book. You can’t convince them that what they read isn’t gospel.
I PRAY that GOD REMOVES everyone in your life who secretly gossips about you, puts you down, doesn't want to see you win and REPLACE them with people who genuinely support you and want to see you happy and blessed.
STOP CLEARING your name... let people think WHATEVER about you. Cause whether you're winning or losing you'll still be SOMEBODY'S topic... Just keep it pushing and be humble.
