A movie about Michael Oher was made in 2009 starring Sandra Bullock as Leigh Anne Tuohy, Tim McGraw as Sean Tuohy, Quinton Aaron as Michael Oher and Kathy Bates as Miss Sue. This young man has had an extraordinary life.
I love a good story about how someone struggles and triumphs, gets over all kinds of odds to achieve true greatness. It doesn’t matter if someone else thinks you’re great by the way, but you’ll almost always find someone to admire and appreciate what you’ve been too. There may also be detractors, but hopefully you’re strong enough to recognize that it’s not about you, it’s about them.
Whenever anyone pays you a compliment, it’s about them. They feel good and they want you to feel good too. When someone tries to put you down, criticize you for what you’ve done well, that’s also about them too. They feel bad and they want you to share in that bad.
Don’t let them.
Minimize how much contact you have with such negative people.
You don’t need them, but they sure need you. By putting you down, they think they’re raising themselves up. But anything negative like that only lasts a short time. pretty soon they’ll be sifting through some other crap to bring down someone else. You know, they bring them down off the high horse.
I suggest you keep those people as far away from you as possible. Keep pursuing what you know is good for you. Remember, what you do must be good for you and other people and even the world!
Michael Oher has much to be thankful for. For the kindness of others, through his own determination, hard work, faith and belief in himself and in others, he is the success he is today.
Michael Oher is on his way to Super Bowl Sunday with the Carolina Panthers. How sweet is that?
