How to deal with the negative people in your life who don't understand and won't support you

Let's be honest we've all had a hater in our life at some point, it can be quite a hard thing to cope with, almost stressful at times having someone try and hold you back or criticize a choice or decision you have made, you almost start actually doubting yourself and whether they are right and you're just not good enough.

That's the power a hater can have over you.

I think one of the hardest things to get used to when I started coaching my outdoor training programme back in 2009, I was dealing with criticism and haters all the time. I was a new coach in a new city, I knew nobody and had to prove that I could get results for my clients.
