You think like people you spend time with

Description

Motivational speaker Jim Rohn famously said that we are the average of the five people we spend the most time with. What he means is that we tend to adopt the attitudes and life approaches of those we interface with most frequently. This has major ramifications for anyone with ambition. It means we can change our circumstances by changing our crowd.

Summary

They say that you are what you eat. But the truth is that you are who you spend time with. The people we interact with most have the greatest impact on our conversations and the ideas we're exposed to. The perspectives they espouse tend to influence our own.
