In 5 years, you’ll be the same person you are today, but for the books you read and the friends you keep.
In our quest to be successful at anything, we try to adjust almost everything except what really matters. What influences us.
The people in your circle affect you more than you can imagine. Almost all of your behavior today was learned by watching how people around you behave. Your friends shape your mindset; they shape how you think, what you believe, and how you act.
There’s a reason why they say birds of a feather flock together.
Really, stop and think about it.
When you have a problem, who do you ask for advice? And who’s advice will you take? Your close friend or some random stranger on the internet? We’re wired to listen and obey those we feel close to, even when we probably shouldn’t.
If you want to change how you think, act and behave, then change your circle.
In the words of Jack Butcher, look for a group where your desired behavior is the norm, and watch it become your normal.
👌This is so factual. Too much evidences to back this up
For instance, you soon become like a boss you admire for a long time 🙏
