Advice, perspectives, or offers to help are minimally impactful. The notion that someone is with you is 10 times more powerful. Be the"darkest hour friend" to those you love.
If someone tries to put down your accomplishments, cut ties with them.
These people are "boat anchors" who try to hold you back and impede your progress. Distance yourself from anyone who spends time bringing others down or dismissing their achievements.
