It has nothing to do with deservedness. We haven't met, but I'm sure you deserve engaged interaction with people. And you will get it when you believe that also!

I meant that if you know who you are, your personalty will shine through stronger, and people always react to that.

And there is another side to this: if you know your purpose, of have a goal, than you will be more aware of people who are also aligned with this purpose or goal. You will start to reach out to them. And when you meet these people, you will have naturally a subject to talk about and bond. And that will give you more confidence so you meet more resonating people etc etc.

So many people live by just going through the motions. There is no excitement, adventure or purpose in their life. So what do they talk about in their offices or clubs? Gossip, jealous backstabbing, banalities, the fear-broadcasts on television etc. Is that what you really want? Just by being on this forum you showed you Aspire more. So get some Clarity and go for it! You'll meet your friends along the way. They're waiting....
