So Long they Keep Talking Behind your Back

We all have been found ourselves in such a position before and some of us might definitely encounter similar scenarios where others would talk ill behind our backs because of reasons best known to them.

A trader who deals in clothes picked up his business once again after relocating to a new town. Through hardwork and dedication, his business began to flourish again after a short time. He was also able to open other clothing outlets in different parts of the city and within two years he built a house and moved in.

As expected, other cloth merchants became jealous and they started slandering him. Some called him a dishonest trader who engage in fraud and other clandestine practices I'm order to make sharp profits.

These rumors soon got to his wife and it made her really bothered. She decided to speak to her husband about all the gossips that have been flying about.

The man looked at her and said:

Well, " that's great, since they can only say all these behind my back, it means that I am at the front".

Isn't it amazing that people who have known you for a very long time never said anything bad about you or your behavior all this while since nothing changed through those years. But as soon as things begin to take shape for the better in your life, then they begin to spread unkind stories just to damage your reputation and honor. There's just one word to describe that " JEALOUSY".

Well, I have noticed that people tend to slander an individual when they see that he's really doing very well for himself. Especially when he is too busy and doesn't have time for the people who talk behind his back.

As an individual, instead of feeling hurt that you are being talked about in a negative light as a result of your outstanding accomplishment, be proud of yourself instead! Be proud that that people are interested in your life more than the way they are interested in theirs. Such malicious tales shouldn't dampen your spirit at all.

When I'm in such a situation, I find it rather amusing than disturbing because most of the things that are said about me are rather ridiculous.

Just keep pushing till you reach the zenith of your ambition. Then you detractors would realize that they have been wasting their time.

Well apart from wasting their time, they had voluntarily become your promoters too as they continue to give you the necessary publicity without getting paid. And ofcourse, don't forget to thank them for a job well done.
