Being on the path to success can sometimes alter the way people communicate or express themselves to you. In fact, the people closest to you such as family and friends will be the first to switch up their way of communication with you. Why is that? Well, the unfortunate truth is people aren't always happy when you choose to improve your life and aim for greatness. When given the chance people will try to minimize your accomplishments by belittling what you are doing, becoming jealous/envious, and trying to one-up you.
