“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”
~ Jim Rohn
You are the average of the five people with whom you spend the most time.
Think about that.
And make a list for me (me? For yourself…), please.
Name of Person #1. ______________________
Name of Person #2. ______________________
Name of Person #3. ______________________
Name of Person #4. ______________________
Name of Person #5. ______________________
OK. Now, next to each person, make an arrow. Up if they inspire you and make you a better person. Down if they bring you down.
Lesson is frighteningly simple: You want people who bring you up. Not down.
…
My question for you: Do you need to alter your Top 5?
…
Remember: We are the average of the five people with whom we spend the most time.
Choose wisely!
