Self-discipline and determination is the most time what we need to get the job done and success will come knocking at our door. The kind of friends will keep can influence our decision in the wrong way or in the right way. Only keep the right kind of friends by ensuring you pick the one who is like-minded and ready to take the risk because a man that cannot take risk is not ready to be rich.
Press on, nothing can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talents. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Perseverance and determination alone are omnipotent. - Calvin Coolidger
Let us be guided, the people you hang out with my not necessarily be your friends. Hang out with people who add value to your life.
Are your friends raising you up? or pushing you down? Are they helping you grow or destroying your life gradually?
Think about these things, you have something special in you that can spur you to success but it won't materialise if you don't see it. Everyone in your life has agenda, some get closer because of envy, some get closer genuinely while some just love you.
A true friend is ready to fight with you, fight for you, raise you up, never pull you down, ready to go to war with you. True friends are not the one who make your problem disappear only but they are the one who won't disappear when you are facing a real problem.
Choose wisely and let your self-determination come alive.
