RULE 3: Make friends with people who want the best for you.
Don’t befriend someone because you think you can change his/her life. You might think you’re a strong, generous, well-put-together person who wants to do the right thing but you’ll end up doing more harm to yourself. Make friends with people who are already where you want to be.
That way you’ll learn from their mistake, have more clarity as to the needs and actuality of your goals and career trajectory.
