noticed, as with everything, some people are super critical. With respect to motivation, being motivational, inspiration, and being inspirational; there are people that seem to really dislike the folks that are posting about these topics.<\/p>\n

1)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If you don\u2019t like what people are posting don\u2019t follow them.<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The world is insane and angry, there\u2019s nothing wrong with some motivational or inspirational content being posted.<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I for one like the motivational stuff when I\u2019m able to actually absorb it. I\u2019m not always a happy guy and there are times it helps me, it lights that fire under my ass to get over myself and do something.<\/p>\n

Aren\u2019t there better things to be upset about? I don\u2019t know\u2026how about education, hunger, or corruption? Trust me, I have my moments where some of the abundance of motivational crap bugs me but I choose to ignore it and move on. I don\u2019t include that in lists of things not to do on the social web.<\/p>\n

My takeaway: Maybe the haters of motivational and inspirational stuff need it more than the rest of us.<\/p>\n
