You don't have to follow every piece of advice you receive. It may not be right for you or your situation.
All you need to do is be clear that you appreciated the perspective and considered it seriously.
A real friend or mentor will support you in whatever decision you make.
As human beings we essentially belong to the same family and we have to think of each other as part of ‘us’. To develop peace in the world, we have to educate people to understand that we are all the same in being human.
Sometimes we fall into old patterns and struggle with things we thought we've overcome. It doesn't mean we're failing at life. Growth doesn't happen overnight. Sometimes it's two steps forward, one step back.

I'd love to live in a world where people spend as much time developing their character as they do developing their careers.
What if our moral codes were as clear as our ambitions?
Goals without values are empty. Here's to leading an honorable life, not just a successful one.
Vulnerability is hard & it feels scary & dangerous. But it’s not as hard, scary, or dangerous as getting to the end of our lives & having to ask ourselves, ’What if I would have shown up?' ~Brené Brown

Productivity comes from focusing on your to-do list.
Growth starts with making your to-learn list.

The true measure of people's potential is not the height of the peak they've reached, but how far they've climbed to get there.
