You are the center of your universe, but not of others’.
Your motivations, passions and vision may have some common denominator with another,
but volume, means & priorities, not.
It get complicated because life is dynamic and stability, naught.
It gets complicated because not everything is conscious from your part or the other.
What do you do? Adapt to their way?
Do it by yourself, only? … You may find it hard. You may feel very lonely.
Maybe break your goals into smaller projects, find collaborative aids in every stage.
Enjoy success on its gradual ways, be happy as people suddenly, commit and engage.
