Highlights

Choose Your Company Wisely: Last time, we emphasized the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people. Your company can shape who you become, so be selective in your friendships.


Understanding Your Purpose: Before leaving home, it's crucial to know why you're going and what you aim to achieve. Purpose gives direction to your journey.
