This may sound harsh but........,,

Quit anything and anyone that does not get you closer to your goals.

Yes this may sound harsh but this is a reality if you are to get to where you want to go (Only you can determine where you want to go if you want to live a fulfilled existence).  We cannot live our lives on the time lines or expectations of others.  Having said this it is important to remember and understand that there may be two or more  competing goals that we want to do and as such to accomplish both we have to do the proverbial stick handle, but all the time focused on the goals.

It can be harsh but sometimes the people we keep company with are not in our best interests or align with our goals and as such we are better off with not having them in our lives or inner circles. Some times such people can hold us back as we allow this to happen to ourselves.  We can spend time doing things that do not move us towards our goals.

For myself, I have had to stop communicating with people in my past as I let their behaviours affect my behaviours and it was destructive to what I wanted in life.  I have also had to stop things that were destructive to my personal goals.

As I have become more able to articulate what is I want in life and what my "true goals" are it is easier to do things that get me there and to be around people that are in alignment with where I am headed.
