Your expectations drag you down.

Having standards is one thing, but not taking action because of an unfounded fear of not fulfilling your hopes will only keep you stuck in your hole.

This usually happens with friends.

You think that you should only seek people who match your requirements, but the reality is that there's a friend for every facet of your life.

So you're a car enthusiast?

Go and find people who are as well.

Has chess piqued your interest?

Look for other aspiring grand masters.

There may be an overlap between your other interests and theirs, but that would just be a side-effect.

The key idea is to go out and exploit your inclinations in order to expand your social circle.

Through a bout of loneliness, many desperate but tempting ideas can spring to mind.

Nevertheless, they're less grounded in logic and reason than in emotional cravings.

It's enticing to act on them, though it's only through a miracle that they'll lead you to a desirable outcome.

Apart from being more mindful of our emotions, it's imperative that we make peace with solitude.

However derided it may be, only in those moments can we dig up insights that allow us to better understand ourselves.
