The More People You Meet, the More Challenges You'll Face
While it’s essential to build a small, high-quality tribe, it’s equally important to acknowledge a hard truth: the more people you encounter, the more problems you will face. This isn’t a reflection of you—it’s simply a numbers Game.
As you put yourself out there, achieving more and interacting with a wider variety of people, you’re naturally going to come across individuals who aren’t aligned with you or your values. Some people may bring negativity, jealousy, or conflict into your life. It’s inevitable. The ratio of supportive people to problem people remains consistent as your social circles expand—it just means that the more people you meet, the more you’ll encounter those few who cause friction.
But don’t take this personally. It’s not about you; it’s about probability. You can’t expect to meet hundreds of people and not run into a few bad apples. Just as there are stars in a galaxy, there are also black holes. That’s just how life works. The more active you are, the more people you meet, and the higher the likelihood that you’ll cross paths with some who bring challenges. But remember, it’s a small percentage—don’t let it weigh you down.
