Not so much attention!

We pay so much attention to some such unimportant people in our lives, its such a waste. Some people just need a reason to criticize you, or belittle you, sometimes not ever a reason. And yet we make such effors to please or ignore such defaulters. We try to argue, convince, sometimes avoid. While really, anything we do is already being done. Most of the things are being done all the time. So what is such a big deal that these few people need to pick on us, criticizing, irritating and just coming through as arrogant rats while many a times they themselves aren't so great anyway. It is just our attention that is making them feel as important at they are feeling in the first place.

All these people do is waste our time and attention. Discussing things that don't need any discussion. Inviting explainations on obvious actions. And really with no real returns.

Listen to what Samuel Goldwyn said:

Pay no attention to the critics. Don't even ignore them.

Its ok to be scared.

Who wants criminals or potential criminals in their lives? Anybody? Well, of course not!
Its ok to be scared sometimes. To just take the less heroic path and avoid stuff. Bad stuff. People do bad things to each other. And there are things we don't want to be happening to us. So whenever those things come up, we just avoid the path that leads us there. Is that right? Is that wrong?
If the issue is small, maybe its better to face it. But crime? And really, we don't know what some people can be capable of doing.
Physical well being is important. An athlete may lose his entire life if someone breaks his legs only out of rage. Some accidents can lead to a mental state where we can lose our confidence.
Sometimes its just better to listen to what we're being told. Sometimes its just better to think of safety all the time. Look who you're with. Be aware of who is staring at you. Take care about other people obsessions, it may sometimes affect you. We just never know.
