Look at their motives. Who is for you, who is against you.
When you have good news and you tell them do they squish and roll up their face because it isn't happening to you or are they happy for you?
Are they a downer and always complaining and never getting anywhere?
Do you tell them your plans and they doubt you saying you will never make it?
Watch those who you tell your plans to because not everyone is for you. Some people will only want to hear ideas so either they can steal them or doubt you or talk you out of it.
These kinds of people will not allow you to grow and you need to get rid of them or you will end up missing out on your chance because of jealousy or they don't want you to go.
Replant yourself into a bigger pot, water yourself and snip off the dead root and stems and grow.
Remove yourself from the negativity.
You can do it. If it fails, then try again sometimes it will take more than once to get it right.
