More often than not, you’re brain, and then your chances of success are shaped by proximity. Spend enough time around people who complain, and complaining starts to feel normal. Spend enough time around people who think small, and ambition begins to look unrealistic. Spend enough time on projects where mediocrity is accepted, and your own standards...
