🧵 when did you realise to change your circle

Lol never. Once you become a part of the circle, you cannot escape it. You have to deal with it. You can try to spend time with other people but you cannot change your circle.

Panchi udke kahi bi jaye, raatko ghar ata hi hai (A bird can fly anywhere, but at night it will come home only)

Its a very nuanced question.

1. I mean I never left my school friends circle. We are still together. We have a whatsapp group. Also, we talk very less as everyone is busy but no one left the group this the best part.

2. One more circle I’ve with the college friends. We are still together. Few people left the group idk why without even telling anything. But then what can we do about this.

3. As far as the professional network is concerned, its keep on changing once you hit the bar.

When you start questioning yourself ‘what is wrong with me that I am talking to this person?’, that’s when you move away.

Personal life - When the person hasn't evolved or refuses to evolve; is dishonest; becomes politically polarised to a nauseating level; sticks around you for your money.

Professional life - When the person is toxic and manipulative; is jealous of colleagues' growth.

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods;
There is a rapture on the lonely shore;
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar;
I love not man the less, but Nature more...

Never, my circle has extremely limited individuals. No one from office (and that is very helpful) plus I never try to fit in any circle just for the sake of interacting or so called networking.

You make groups organically. If you want to fit in with a bunch over achievers thinking ur avg will go high, thats just desperate IMO.
Like minded form groups, atleast thats what i have seen in colg or school.
