8 Tactics for Dealing with Haters

From Tim Ferriss' Tools of Titans:

1. It doesn't matter how many people don't get it. What matters is how many people do.

2. 10% of people will find a way to take anything personally. Expect it and treat it as math.

3. When it doubt, starve it of oxygen. Attention is the same as oxygen to the haters.

4. If you respond, don't over-apologize.

5. You can't reason someone out of something they didn't reason themselves into. Don't get down in the mud with a pig.

6. "Trying to get everyone to like you is a sign of mediocrity." - Colin Powell. Self-explanatory.

7. "If you want to improve, be content to be though foolish and stupid." - Epictetus. One of the rules to live by.

8. "Living well is the best revenge." - George Herbert. Have seen this quote attributed to many but the truth remains.
