Find those persons with whom you're comfortable. Find those persons in whose presence you feel more energetic, more creative and more able to pursue your life goals. Stay away from persons who make you feel apprehensive, or who influence you to doubt yourself. Especially, stay away from those persons who drain you, so that your energy is all used up in trying to maintain the relationship.

Dennis F. Augustine in Invisible Means of Support: A Transformational Journey: A Tribute to Joseph Campbell by Dennis F. Augustine

 

To Practice This Thought:
Throw a party for the people in your life who make it possible for you to be your best self.
