Breaking Free from the Pack

If you succeed in life, you must do it in spite of the efforts of others to pull you down. There is nothing in the idea that people are willing to help those who help themselves.  People are willing to help a man who can’t help himself, but as soon as a man is able to help himself, and does it, they join in making his life as uncomfortable as possible. -Ed Howe

Your journey to being better at any aspect of your life will be hard for the people around you that are not truly invested in you.  As you grow, many of the people around you will stay the same.  Sometimes it is best to find new people if you find them pulling you back down with them.  But the people that truly want you to succeed will cheer you on!
