I wish I was lucky enough right now to work with people of your nature, although our system doesn't help either, but I need to surround myself with people who have a lot of discipline, and enough motivation to succeed, and who don't care about the obstacles, they just have to have the will.
Something very similar to what you have Galenkp, I need what you describe.
Let's go for it! but always with a plan B and another C if necessary.
I wish you the same, many successes in the coming 2025.
It's really important who we surround ourselves with although in a work environment it's difficult to be selective.
So many people absorb the influences of social media people, often bikini-clad fake-boobed girls pushing one product or another on Instagram and I don't think that's altogether healthy or productive. people are made to feel inadequate through marketing to keep them spending in pursuit of feelings of acceptance, validation or relevance but those things can only come from within. Sad really.
I work hard to find my own relevance, to surround myself with like-minded people and those who value me for who I am and with all my flaws and fallibilities.
Anyway, keep pushing, you'll get closer to where you want to be that way.
I understand what you are saying, and I fight even against those who try to make me quit before I even start...but I can't let myself be defeated yet....above all, because I will only stay with the people who deserve it.
If it doesn't work out it will be one more experience I'll take with me.
Thanks Galenkp for making me understand some good things.
Negative people should be shunned, no matter who they are.
