Ignore them and remember that their advice is worth exactly what you paid for it. On second thought, note what they're saying and do a quick soul search in private - do they say that you can't sing for example. Record yourself singing and make an honest critique of it remembering that some people are not meant to be soloists but do sound great with a group. Try to keep in mind that even the stars had to work to be where they are. If this person is an all around party pooper than just ignore the negativity.

What do you mean by this, please. You are so vague that it's hard to advise.
If the person is, for example, a close relative - a parent or spouse perhaps, then your response should be considerably different than one hurled at some ill-mannered stranger.
And by "star?" Well, it's hard to say - a star could be just about anything or any one - such as a star athlete or star performer or star student.

- First identify (not from your point of view, others' opinions): Is this person REALLY trying to kill the star in you?
- If it's a neighbor or a workmate, you can simply IGNORE this person till they feel they are not there.
- If it is a wife or a mother or a family member, try to help them FIND their OWN star.... when they feel self-secure about themselves, their lives, and their relationship with you... they won't worry about killing the star in you.
Good luck.

Well,first of all who is "this person". I've often had to disuade young people who insist "they need an MTV crib" or who insist they will be the next "brittany spears" when they clearly cannot sing or dance.
You only need to watch "American Idol" so see how many deluded young people there are out there..with unrealistic dreams. Could it be...this "person"is trying to protect you??

prevalent of my existence. basically began taking drugs in hopes that it will replace the way I see issues. I desire you the final of luck. don't be scared to talk to somebody approximately it on account which you are able to finally end up feeling extra helpful.

Ignore them. You won't amount to much if you pay attention to every person who would like to keep you from achieving things. Listening to advice is one thing, but ignore all the naysayers whose every thought is negative.

Help the person to pay the bills take care of the kids and you'll see how supportive she'll be.

stay away from them. when they come by you walk the other way. i know this may be hard but try and tell them how you feel about it. it may depend on who it is for the ease of it. good luck

Put a contract out on them as they are probably doing to you what they do to other fabulous people.

I would slip them a Mickey, put them in the trunk, and dump them off in Reno, Weed, Lodi, or Needles!! nm
