Answer 1

If i had to guess, I'd say that it means to have some sort of contact to the outside world. Never lose contact from the outside, and always be up-to-date to what you need to know.

Just imagine you go to friends and you've been inside your house for a long time. They start talking and you have no idea what they mean. Awkward, wouldn't that be?

Answer 2

We all have a rough idea idea of what we want to do in life, where we would like to be in say, 5, 10, or 20 years. While there is nothing wrong with listening to others, it should still be your choice of how you live your life; don't let others change your plan just because they think they know what's best for you.

Answer 3

i think it means that you shouldn't let people outside your life affect the way you think about yourself and other people.

i'm not sure where it's from but i'm sure if you google it, you could find it.
