With this context, I would also agree with the meme. And obviously, in your situation, encouragement would be much better. I was also in a situation of being dismissed, and I believed the people saying these things too.

But I also remember friends of mine appealing to my critical thinking, like: "Okay, maybe think about this some more instead of doing the first thing that seems like you want to do". I wouldn't be here if I just dismissed all those critiques as well, just because they are phrased as in this meme...
