If you had a goal or dream and someone is putting you down and saying like, "that is a dumb idea" or " that is just a waste of time" what will you do?

There are always gonna be people that are negative. Don't let them get to you. Believe in yourself and YOU have control over your life. If you have a goal, don't let the negative thoughts of others deter you. Good Luck

Prove them wrong.
Besides, it's your life so you get to make the decisions and the mistakes, but it will never be a waste of time, only lessons to learn.
Unless your goal is to become part of the cast of Jackass or do some crazy things like being the world record person eating the most hot dogs in 1 minute...then maybe it's best to listen to them.

Don't give up on your dreams. I did and I've regretted it always. Look at it this way. If you try and fail will you be any worse off than you are now? Even if you fail you will, no doubt, have some interesting experiences along the way and create memories you'll carry with you always. And if you succeed all your efforts will pay off.
An old man once told me that, as he looked back over his life, his regrets, for the most part, weren't things he'd done... but all the things he DIDN'T do or failed to do or failed to try. And now this old man is giving you the same advice

I have this problem too sometimes. DO NOT listen to them. live out your dream. do what EVER you want in life, but DO NOT stop your goal and dream just because someone says it is dumb. you WILL regret it. listen you what your heart says.

Hopefully these are not your friends. Birds of a feather flock together. Quotes such as, "that is a dumb idea," or "that is just a waste of time" come from defeatists. If you remain in their company, you will become...a defeatist. You will never realize a dream. Get new friends. :)

They're just insecure and jealous that you make goals for yourself. I am guessing that these people don't do this... They're intimidated by you! Go for it! Prove to them that you were serious, and then you'll be the one looking at them a laughing. Or you could inspire someone, who knows?
