People will throw stones at you, don’t throw them back, but use them to build an empire
I’m sure all of you remember the saying from your childhood sticks and stones will break your bones, but words will never hurt me

While this is true, real sticks and stones would physically hurt us the psychological damage done by throwing hurtful words is real hurdles that we deal with in life
I think back to different circumstances in my life when I’ve been criticized in the form of stones and the truth is, it all depends on how I’m feeling at the time if I’m confident in what I’m doing, then I would be able to shrug off some of the comments, but if I’m feeling unsure or uncertain then I will spend time worrying about what has been said rather than spend time on something constructive

You have to make a decision, and I promised you that the next time you encounter someone throwing stones at you you would take it as feedback to put into a metaphorical box, and choose not to engage in any further discussion with them, but to try to look at it, objectively and see if there was any element of truth in their comments
Is this hard absolutely but we truly have to look at it as a season to learn as much as we can without allowing those negative feelings and comments to stop our progress so we can use those stones to help us build our empires whatever that may look like
I would love to hear how you have managed your stones being thrown at you and how you’ve used them to continue building yourself and your empire!
