Something I learned from successful people:
They disappoint others regularly. Cancel plans. Miss parties. Skip events. Say no constantly. Not because they're jerks. Because they're focused. Every yes to someone else's priority is a no to their own. You can be liked or you can be successful. Eventually you have to choose. Most people choose liked and wonder why they're stuck.

Да, именно так.
