One of the most difficult challenges in life is to make your emotion catch up with your ambitions. When you are young, you are less likely to be settled in your way, and changes to your life throws back, or at least destabilizes, any habits you believe you have acquired, even if just for the short term. Never believe yourself superior to your emotions, for whether you like it or not, they are your personality, and you should spend time meditating on how to live with them, rather than ignoring their vagaries and having them destroy you.

If you must make money, make money, but don’t surround yourself with people of such stature, for the sake of your emotional stability, and therefore your mental well being. Doctors, you mighty paragons of existence, I beseech you, aim for perfection, and understand that your directives for health is what creates th...
