This is great advice from Grimes. Really all of it, but particularly this.

You will never hear more people tell you that you’re wrong than when you’re succeeding.

Dead on. When you are failing and flailing other than the few who enjoy kicking someone when they are down, no one much cares about you.

When you start to succeed and then you actually do succeed, the jealous, envious, hateful and demented will emerge like vermin from the woodpile to claw, gnaw, vex and obstruct you.

It’s strange. When you succeed, it can actually feel like you’re failing because so many – vastly more – people will turn out to tear you down and diminish you.

I am sure this is 10x as true for a woman.
