It takes effort to make a peer group or adjust to a new glittery world. It requires a lot of learning and unlearning. It requires not taking anything personally and growing a thick skin.
Unlearning is mostly on stereotypes and underconfidence. Learning mostly on grabbing all the opportunities coming on the way.
We have limited time on this planet and so much to do for ourselves. Choose your tribe wisely, it can make or break your life.
