I was isolated in my Houston apartment every single day for well over a year.
I ate, meditated, wrote, studied, etc, with nobody but myself.
It was bearable for a while, because I was learning to live with my mind as the meditations and studying revealed my nature. I learned to accept and improve it.
But f*ck, that level of loneliness hurts. Especially when your friends and family don't understand.
But I knew that I needed to walk through the valley of loneliness (that 99% of self improvers and entrepreneurs must cross) to get where I needed to be.
I hear it all the time...
"My friends make fun of me for self improvement, my friends talk sh*t on my business attempts"
Yeah, they're subconsciously wired to do that.
You don't fault the stupid little chihuahua for barking, it's just it's nature.
If you choose low level "friends" over your goals, you do NOT deserve to reach your goals. Go be another crab in the bucket like them.
But, the valley isn't forever.
You reach a point where you organically attract likeminded individuals (unless you are completely socially inept lol).
Keep pushing bro, those bums don't deserve your presence, and you don't deserve their sabotage.
