I can't really change my life to accommodate people who are jealous. I don't see why I should.
It has very little to do with my work, but if your image is not sexy enough, people won't listen. It's part of the game.
So just to be truthful to my own sensibility, I need to acknowledge that the season is not all joy and light for a lot of people. It's tough - environmentally, emotionally, spiritually.
You have to be yourself. Stay true to who and what you are. And if people still like you, that's great! If they don't, that's their problem.
A lot of people approach risk as if it's the enemy when it's really fortune's accomplice.
