My advice to you is simple. Look at certain members of this community and look at how productive/destructive or just plain silly (putting it nicely) they are. Once you can sort out the bad from the good. Dont even waste time reading the bad people's nonsense.
Seriously... Not worth your time and emotional pain to read their bad attempts at trying to be "cool" or feel important

If you do something right (or at least something that matters) then you create an impact on people/world .. and you be known/recognize. You can either be knows for good, bad or both. When you do something that matters, you will have allies aswell as enemies!
that's why "If you have enemies, it means you did something right"
Practical example of someone that did nothing ever: FARMER JOE!:
have you ever heard about Farmer Joe, a guy that lived in the 1745 and ... was a farmer?!
Well, neither did I! ... but did he have enemies?! ... well, no... cause he did nothing, so no one had any reason to hate him.
But if no one hated him than, doesn't that means he was a great guy and should be known?! ... Nope! He wasn't hated because he wasn't knows O.O ... BECAUSE HE DIDN' DU NUTHIN!
EDIT: Wrong account
Your path of logic implies that you cannot do anything right without creating enemies, but avoding creating enemies isn't that hard. If you manage so, it means you didn't care enough to avoid it, which is almost as if you'd purposefully do something to create enemies for yourself, and I wouldn't really call that "right". Noteworthy? Yes, obviously people not liking you will notice and remember you. But that doesn't mean what you've done is right.
And your example has several flaws. If you have never heard of Farmer Joe, how do you know if he had enemies or not? Furthermore you keep following the logic that gaining attention by your action, even if it's negative attention resulting in enemies, is automatically right. By this logic we could say that <insert random nazi dictator from 20th century who's name starts with hit and ends with ler> was right in what he did, because he was remembered and he had a lot of enemies. "He had enemies, so he must have done something right." One of the worst ways of justifying your actions is to brag about how many don't like them.
Oh and as far as I know Jesus and saints aren't known and remembered of their huge amount of enemies, rather their (alleged) good deeds, in some cases miracles.
