35.20 Stop eating at the table that starves you

Stop eating at the table that starves you. “Not every invitation is worthy of your presence, your time, or your energy.” Some tables serve nothing but distraction, doubt, and smallness — and you were not made to feast on that. Rise from it without apology. Seek the places, the people, and the pursuits that feed your strength, sharpen your vision, and honor your worth. Leave the table of lesser feasts — a noble appetite is for greatness.
