Who you surround yourself with helps you stick to your values and achieve your goals. You grow together. If you want to run a 2:45 marathon, you don’t train with people who run a 4:45.
I’ve never cared much for destinations. The idea of landing is too finite for my imagination and sense of song. Give me a direction and a 16 lane highway with room to swerve and explore along the way. Like jazz, I prefer to see life as a river.
