The best way to take a Revenge

in life •  7 years ago  (edited)

 


"It's not good to think about taking a revenge". Well, it depends entirely on why you want to revenge and how you intend doing it. 

Yes, I want to get back at them. I was once used as a description of whom a failure is. A relative of mine always made derogatory comments like, "don't do this or you'll end up like Ogoo". Guess what? It hurts. Each time I heard that, I felt like committing suicide. 

In my former place of work, I was accused of theft, detained and humiliated. After everything, I was not found guilty, yet there was no apology or compensation from my boss. To make things worse, he seized my salary. All that happened because he was rich, I wasn't and in my part of the world, the rich are always right. 

Now all these and several other ill-treatment I passed through made me vow that I'll keep on striving until I attain a certain height in social status. In case you don't know yet, the world is not a fair place where class and other stuff don't matter. Man has always sought out ways to predate on his fellow man (only 5% of the entire human race has the interest of humanity at heart without prejudice). If they see a sport where you are helpless, they use it as an opportunity to exploit you. The recent happening in Libya should be a case study.


What happened between my former boss and I kept me thinking for days. I could have been jailed if not for the intervention of my church (Living Faith Church). What if the church didn't come to my rescue? I would be jail for no other reason than helplessness. In other words, some people in our prisons could be innocent, but serving jail terms for being helpless. Pathetic!!!

Some men snatch other people's women because they are richer. And some ladies dump their spouses for wealthier men. The best revenge is not to use a gun or an acid, the best revenge is to move away from the position that gave them the opportunity to treat you bad. 

In as much as I have always dreamt of being successful from my childhood, my major motivator is the desire to prove to all those who wrote me off and treated me as a nobody that they undervalued me.

Yeah, the world is full of scavengers seeking whom to devour. My best revenge is to move away from where they use to see me. I'm striving to go far away from the helpless zone where they pick up their victims. 

My Best Revenge is to prove to them that they made a mistake to have taken me for granted.

My Best Revenge is to be Successful.

The best revenge is living well- Seinfeld

That's right! Thanks for this.

:)

Another popular saying is that "The Best Revenge Is Massive Success"
Everyone that neglected, and humiliated you will look for your favor when you become successful. All we need as individuals is to be strong, work hard and don't get carried away by the storm of haters.

Massive Success look like good - Utopia, but would be nice:)

You are correct that there are too few in the world that truly care for others. I am a realist but also follow morals. The rule I set for myself is treat others the way they treat me. If they are bad I have to be bad too. Yet if they cross the line with something unethically I will stop and move off. The reality is sometimes you have to set them straight or else they will always run over me and take advantage of me.

I love your thinking. But I don't bother treating them the way they treat me. I simply move on and place myself in a position where they will not be able to hurt me again.

Thank you for comment here.

Voila!!!

I gave up on revenge. It became so easy in my older and more mature days to turn around and leave it behind. No need to prove anything to anybody not even myself. If somebody made a mistake it’s not up to me to tell. They will find out and I am long gone.

I have followed your post for quite a while and I know this is your personality. I admire it. I wish I could live that way too, but I always feel the need to make them look stupid for treating me bad.

Thank you for visiting my blog.

I wish I would not overlook many good articles, especially yours. Every time I catch one I feel that I would like to meet you one day for a long chat. Thank you for your kindness
It’s been and still is a process of learning to accept people as they are. I’ve been disappointed many times as many of us. Yes! Indeed I used to do the same, went for revenge to make them feel what Fool’s they are.
I had to stop this senseless madness, think twice before I attack and bombard them with my words going nowhere. We cannot change people who treat us wrong unless they change themselves .....after loosing you. 💕
We need to keep our energy and sanity to be able to give love at the right place.

I am blushing. From the first time you found me on steemit, you have always made me feel special. Thanks for this ma'am. When the price of steem goes to the moon 🌙, then I'll have enough money to travel around the world. That time, I'll have the privilege to meet you in person. Thanks once more.

You ARE special and we shall meet soon close by that moon 🌝 🤩

Yes man! The only revenge is to be successful! Great words

Thank you.

Hi @ogoowinner , people always look for who to pick on as a result of their bitterness. I have realized that i'm always better off than the people that pick on me, so i don't let what they say get to me. It's our lives, we chose what we let in, for me, i chose success and happiness. That's my revenge.

Exactly my point. Thanks for your comment here.

You are welcome

One of the reasons I dust my butt and get to work most times is the desire to prove to these people that I am not a "write-off" as they have pegged me to be.

Awww..... This had me thinking. People are written off so easily but this is where God is greater than all. Because most people who were written off were actually given a reason to keep fighting hard. You hear people say 'if not that I was mistreated, I wouldn't have been the better person that I am now. And at the end, becoming successful is enough revenge as you watch them hang their heads in shame.

Yes ma'am, sometimes we need harsh situations to make us sit up. Thanks for your comment.

I'm really sorry you had to experience such earlier in your life. It's just sad that humans get treated like animals and for obscene reasons too. Your style of revenge is probably the best form of revenge one could ever take, and it would surely go a long way to leave a long lasting impression in the hearts and mind of persons that have treated you badly or hurt you in some way in the past. Thanks alot for sharing.

You are welcome. Thanks for reading. We owe those who look down on us a reason to make them look up to us.

Wow... I learnt alot from your content.. Keep it up

The best revenge is forgetting those who your trying to prove wrong.

hello i new user in steem it plss folow me back

Ok. Just a little advice. That's not how to get followers. If you read the post and leave a good comment, I could follow you.

Welcome to steemit.

Agrrrrrr Tell it sisterrrr!

Wow! I love the manner u approached the story.

The part that got me,

Some men snatch other people's women because they are richer. And some ladies dump their spouses for wealthier men. The best revenge is not to use a gun or an acid, the best revenge is to move away from the position that gave them the opportunity to treat you bad.

@sussan didn't get at me after all..Lol

You see, being successful is simply the best way to revenge at any given time for the people who looked down on you would be scared to do so when they discover the worth of your new shoes.

Stay strong dear!

Glad I found how to comment... I guess your username came from one of the negative words your relatives do call you "oogo" huh... The best revenge is to be successful and they will bow before you.

Your words are pithy but poignant and pragmatic. It's good enough to revenge by succeeding and showing the haters you are worth more than they think. But I think it's even better if you completely ignore them and just live. Like you said, take yourself away from their company and move on. This way, when you do succeed, it won't be because of them, but because you are worth succeeding. They would be forced to see that you apparently don't care about them or give a shit what they do. And trust me, you won't just feel avenged, you will also get the respect you deserve in no time.

I remembered this famous quote and i think it perfectly match this post :)

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

Awesome! Life is indeed not fair but we cannot afford to be complacent, fingers are indeed not equal but noticeable when they are idle. A good lesson there, as the best revenge is to be successful. Thanks for sharing this @ogoowinner

The best revenge is to become more successful than the person trying to humiliate you are the words my parents repeatedly told me as I grew up, so I have taken it as something never to forget and it has basically become a part of me.

When someone acts in a way that is really painful, I just look at the person and say we shall meet again and by that I mean by the time we meet again, I will be more successful and I will be able to remind him or her of what they have done.

let your success make the noise !!!

Beautiful post dear. From now on, the revenge would be carried out the ogoo way ;).

Yeah! The biggest revenge is to be successful so all haters that think they ate better than me will come prostrate in front of me. I really love this blog keep it up.

Nice. The best revenge is simply accepting your faith and move on.

Humans are bound to misbehave and put their interests first, do as much as you can not to put yourself in positions where their hurts can get to you

All facts, the best revenge to me is to prove them wrong and achieve more than their expectations at the end of the day

I used to be vengeful. I hated being made to feel bad and would go out of my way to make my 'attacker'feel a bit of my pain too.

I had to change when I discovered exacting revenge didn't actually make me feel good in the end.

Now do I forgive? Yes, I do but I still try to give the person a piece of my mind. I also try to avoid those who add nothing but pain to your existence.
