You need a really solid foundation of friends and family to keep you where you need to be.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've learned it's really important to work hard and keep your family and friends close. You've got to let them know how much you appreciate them for sticking by you.
You need a strong family because at the end, they will love you and support you unconditionally. Luckily, I have my dad, mom and sister.
One of the difficulties in living the lifestyle I lead is that it is hard to get my friends in one place.
Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious few you should hold on. The older you get, the more you need the people who knew you when you were young.
I think that it's important to have good people around you, like my friends.
I don't need fame and I don't need power and I don't need wealth. I'm in need of friends, which I have found in abundance.
My friends and family are my support system. They tell me what I need to hear, not what I want to hear and they are there for me in the good and bad times. Without them I have no idea where I would be and I know that their love for me is what's keeping my head above the water.
Once you have commitment, you need the discipline and hard work to get you there.
I think that, just in general, my number one priority is to just go out of your way to stay yourself and put yourself out there in a positive way. It's so easy, and you can connect with a lot of your friends.
You don't wanna be around your family constantly.
