Everyone needs to manage their own personal business, but not everyone will. This is because they are too busy trying to manage others business. Another words,"if you're too busy minding your own business then you will be too busy to mind others."
Creating your own personal life and managing it will take up the extra time you have that causes the drama you want to avoid. Keep only the people and things in your personal life that will maintain the life you want.
You cannot change others, you can only change yourself. Others will criticize that you have changed, but it's up to you to decide if this is a change you like or do not like. Your own happiness is the gauge of weather or not a change you have made is right for you.
