“Don't base your decisions on the advice of those who dont have to deal with the results. To simplify, it's better to hang out with people better than you. Pick out associates whos behavior is better than yours and you'll drift in that direction. Let me just say that life is a learning experience. In my perspective to get to the next level you have to learn from those who have ALREADY experienced failure but still succeeded to pursue their goals. they know what works and makes sense and they know what it takes to get there. And they would be more than happy to give you some advice. Take advice and really listen to those who are already are successful.”
