Consider the few people you are closest to you. You will never be more than the sum of those people. Does that bring you closer to or farther from the place you envision your future self to be? People either increase you or decrease you.  If they are not increasing you now, chances are they will decrease you later. Consider your own energy, is it being effected in a positive or negative way, is it being regenerated or depleted?  You are the only one who can answer that question.
