It's good that you are working on your self improvement and developing skills in whatever you do that is proving to be profitable (as long as it's legal).

The thing about these bully type individuals that you will learn is they are not as powerful as you might believe them to be. When we are young we don't see that because they tend to create fear in others who seem to want to be accepted. Eventually, you will see them in a different light and get bored with them.
