The Queen Victoria's quote says that the important thing is not what people think of us but what we think of people.

In life, if we want to be successful in our goals, we have to be aware that other people's thinking about us is helpful up to a point.

The thinking we have about ourselves and how we act and think counts for success in life.

In addition, we have to be critical of who surrounds us. We have to be accompanied only by people we think are honest, helpful, and positive for our journey. We must choose who can be with us and who cannot.

We are not interested in the possibilities of defeat. They do not exist.
