If your friends don't have goals, your goal should be to get new friends. If I feel like you're anything but stoked when I win, I don't need you. Friends root for you to win and to make you better. Enemies tell you to put your goals on hold and secretly hope for you to lose. The people who in your life, do they increase or decrease the likelihood you achieve your goals? If these answers decrease, when you have 2 or 3 or 4 of those, you've got 3 or 4 people that are decreasing likelihood to go. That adds up. Now on the flip side, if you had multiple people that increase the likelihood to get your goals, what do you think happens? You rise up. And so if someone calls themselves a friend but acts like an enemy, treat them like one.
