I hear so many people say, “I don’t know what to do. This relationship is not going the way I want. It was good for a while but now I’m a bit discouraged.” I’d say, CUT your losses!

I may get crucified in some circles for saying this, but my thought on most of these kinds of complications is: life is too short to squander it on people who are PULLING AWAY from your vision and the direction you are going in your life.
There are plenty of people out there who would be happy to be with you, to SUPPORT you, to run that race BESIDE you. That’s what I told my friend and that’s what I’m telling you. Start writing a new story!

Don’t get me wrong there are relationships where we may need to invest time. We may need to work through rough spots, but for heaven’s sake, you only have so much to give and you need to step into circles of friends who will be a boost to your life, not a drain.
