Do what you used 2 do 5 years ago & do it better! that way the jealous ones will get more jealous & in the end you win & they lose.

First, I do not know all of your circumstances, so I will answer in a general way that could apply to many people. Some suggestions will work. Others, you can decide. Decide to get over it because you can. You can't because you are not willing to let go of the hurt and anger. But you can because they are no longer ruining your career except to the extent that you are giving them permission by holding on to this thing. So, let it go like you would a venomous snake in your hand. Decide that you and you alone are responsible for every choice you make from this moment on, that they can no longer control your life or your thinking. If you must get "back at them" let it be your success. You have not experienced anything that others have not experienced and succeeded in spite of. Turn off every negative influence in your life - negative music, movies, and books, negative friends' voices that reinforce your bitterness or encourage self-pity. Read only positive, encouraging literature. Listen only to positive audio and speakers. Find ways to improve yourself daily. Read, read, read. Read and listen to John Maxwell, Jim Rohn, Les Brown, Stephen Covey, Norman Vincent Peale, John Wooden, Dale Carnegie, and people of that character. Read a book called "The Magic of Thinking Big," by Schwartz and another called "The Question Behind the Question." Read, "Now Discover Your Strengths" and take the online strength test to see what sort of career plays to your strengths. Speak only positive words. Meet 10 new people every day with a friendly greeting. Collect business cards. Print your own and pass them out. Spend 15 minutes a day dreaming of the future - your future. Ask yourself if your dream is big enough to make the world a better place for others. Find someone who needs a helping and or word of encouragement today and give it. Ask the positive people in your life what areas of your life need some work and how they advise you to work on them. Choose 3 and begin. If you must feel bad, concentrate it all in 15 minutes a day - not the first 15 or the last. Do it all then and lay it aside. Exercise. Get enough rest, but not too much. Get up early until you are able to get to sleep at a reasonable hour. Eat good, nutritious food. Leave the house daily to do something productive. Laugh a lot. I wish you all the best and will be praying for your success. I know that you can succeed.

If you had an awesome career at one time you can do it again. You have the capability to do something great even if it isn't the same. Good Luck! :)

be glad you're still alive and pursue another goal. Some of us have to learn the hard way...(well most of us) Nothing to it, but to do it!

if you did it before, you can do it again. some people are not capable of any kind of success, be glad you're not one of them.

Read "An Iron Will" by Orison Swett Marden. It's a great motivating book. He also wrote "Cheerfulness As A Life Power." I've read that one and I'm expecting another of his books in the mail entitled "Making Life A Masterpiece."

Make new friends, have a new goal. Try not to think of that time.

Read Rabbi Harold Kushner's WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE. He wrote it when he was dealing with his 13 year old son's untimely death. Take his advice to take the sorrow and anger that you feel and "blow on the coals of the heart" to turn that hurt into something positive and warm that you can send forth in your life. Here is a review I wrote of this book: WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/982434/when_bad_things_happen_to_good_people.html?cat=38 This is a great book that has helped a lot of people. I hope you like it, and I hope it helps you! :)Suzanne

Yes, that happened to me 23 years ago and, you know what, it got to me and did have a "negative" impact on my life. With that said, now at 55, I have been self employed for many years and have many choices my former colleagues might envy and do not have the high blood pressure and subordinates continuing to look for ways to get around or through me to the next level. Life has a way of working out if you let it. Ultimately your carreer is more of an enabler than an end. I suggest you use what you know best and plant your flag somewhere that has meaning for you and focus on it and what can be, rather than what has been and cannot be changed. Good Luck

get back on the horse and start over. You are only 27. Your life is far from ruined. It may be downright shitty right now but I guarantee that someone has bounced back from worse. Stop feeling sorry for yourself. It is wasted energy and intruding into the time you can be using to better your life. Nothing messes with those that try to ruin you than succeeding anyway.

Forgive everyone and move on. its the only way!! Take responsibility for your life and start moving in a positive direction.
