In most instances when someone attacks you,<br> you\u2019re most likely to retaliate by means of stoning them too.\n\nWell let\u2019s try a different style from today onwards. The next time they throw stones at you gather them in one place and invest in them. You will notice that for every stone you put aside your pile will grow bigger and bigger. At the end of the day you will have enough stones to erect a wall in the absence of mortar.\n\nThis is the same way Great Zimbabwe was built. The structure is a make up of rocks with no mortar holding them together. These walls,<br> in history,<br> became a shelter and also a defence mechanism and today they are part of national heritage.\n\nNow understand this; in life there are people who will always give you negative feedback. They\u2019ll tell you,<br>\n\nyou cannot do it,<br> you are not worthy,<br> you do not deserve the good life etc.\n\nThese are stones they will throw in your face everyday. Now the question is; what will you do with the stones?\n\nIt\u2019s either you will throw them back or gather them and erect your strong wall in the absence of mortar. It will be ideal if you erect your own wall which will be a shelter that would hide away your shame and a defence mechanism that will shame the world from rebuking you.\n\nJust like the Great Zimbabwe ruins you will be remembered for finding motivation in negative situations.",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"zimbabwe\",<br>\"ruins\",<br>\"obama\",<br>\"motivation\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmeMr4zWQ73RD76vBMt3rNNhDhGieuiuTemk3tqX6v3zQY\/great-zimbabwe-2-cf.jpg\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.1\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " | | comment_options | "author":"troynamps",
