Where's your table to sit at?

I'm not saying this to seem nice. I 100% want the people I care about to do and have what's best for them.

So if you find that you work best in a certain kind of environment with certain kinds of people. Even if they're stressful or overwhelming or, alternatively, understimulating, or maybe downright toxic to somebody else, then stay there. Maybe the stuff that sabotages another pushes you instead. And that's not necessarily a bad thing.

But if you've noticed that being around certain places or individuals is taking a toll on you, leaving you uninspired or worse, I'm 100% with you in that you're allowed to go elsewhere and not look back. They're not going to compensate you for this sacrifice. Or are they? 😐

(And it is especially absurd when they already have tons of other people to give them attention and still expect more. You don't owe those sorts of people your attention.)

Study the subjects you like, listen to the music you love, and immerse in the stories that have meaning to you. Believe me, it will make you a better person than staying where you don't belong.
