Your desire will determine your success, never what someone else wants for you. All too many times we feel that we need the approval of others or for someone else to take our journey with us. You have to want it for you first, then for family, friends and others. We do need the help and motivation form others but not from people that you have to convince. When you want it bad enough for yourself, those that can and will help you will start to appear as you attract them to you.
