`Our environment, the world in which we live and work, is a mirror of our attitudes and expectations'.
Birds of the Same Feather Flock Together.
When you want to heat up something, you put it in an oven and to freeze something, you place it in a deep freezer. The object takes the property of its surroundings. It is the law of nature. We are also influenced by the people who surround us. To be a writer, move with writers; to be an artist, be in the company of artists; to be a musician, spend a lot of your time with musicians.
To become an expert, we should acquire the best knowledge. There are two gateways to knowledge: through what we hear and what we see. Unless you are in the company of right people, you will not have the opportunity to get exposed to relevant knowledge appropriate for your profession.
Introspect and decide the field in which you want to make a mark. List all the people who are achieving in that field and try to spend as much time as possible with them. Join a professional association where such people meet and discuss and take active part in such bodies.
You alone should succeed, but you cannot succeed alone!
