It's a delicate balance, and it's different for everyone. Well, Eradra, it's all about staying true to your vision. Most of the time in situations like that, where there's immense competition, most people result in cheating and find dirty ways to succeed. But in my opinion, I believe the best way to reframe yourself from doing that is by having a strong mindset, staying true to your beliefs, and always thinking about your goals. Doing these three can guarantee that you will succeed. And not only will you do that, but you will also do it in a way that doesn't change who you are. That's a great question, Eradra. In our program, we focus on steering the youth onto the right path. We encourage them to spend more time with those who will positively impact them and avoid following the wrong crowd. We also encourage them to prioritize the right and most important things like their education. Hmm, self-awareness. Knowing who you are, and peer pressure becomes easier to handle. Stay focused on your why, your reason for doing this. That will be your anchor. Empowerment. When we feel empowered, we are less likely to be swayed by others.
