Being surrounded by people can be one of the biggest influences on how you live your life or even what activities you involve yourself in.
The great thing is, you can choose who you do and don’t hang out with. You should be aiming to be surrounding yourself with people who are doing what you want to do.
These people don’t have to be famous or experts. Even if they are just a single step ahead of you or have been studying/creating music a few months longer, you can learn something from them.
