The informal definition of the word Hater, according to The Mariam Webster Dictionary, is ‘ a person who actively and aggressively criticizes and disparages something or someone (such as a celebrity or public figure)’.

You don’t have to be a celebrity to have haters. You could be one of the best at your job and notice a group forming of those who are jealous of you and can’t handle seeing you succeed. You could be a kind person and notice that your neighbor snubs you when you try to give them a smile. Or, you could be well-dressed and notice sneers and comments when you walk into a public place because you look and feel good. These are all different-types of haters. People are aligned with the negative.

Last week, I wrote an article about more things that I have learned about them, this week I have written 9 affirmations on how to deal with them:

1. I don’t owe negative people anything. Not even a greeting.

2. I rise above negativity.

3. I am worthy of respect.

4. I am worthy of positivity.

5. I am at peace with myself, regardless of how others feel about me.

6. I am in alignment with positivity.
