Ingredient Three; associate with people who will help you get what you want!

Dr. Tom Barrett opens this ingredient with the lines –

King Solomon wrote, “He who walks with wise men becomes wise, while the companion of fools will suffer harm”

King Solomon understood that other people and surroundings had a significant impact on our lives.

For better or worse the people we associate with, in our everyday lives, rub off on us, we become in some ways like them!

So what we need to do is to surround ourselves with the type of successful people who we would like to aspire to be like!

That does not mean you have to give up on the relationships and friends you have made so far in life, but you may have to step back a little, you need to keep friends but you need to prioritize your life in your pursuit of success!

Instead of  going out with friends once a week or more in some cases, I decided that it was in my best interests to associate with other more successful people than myself, I now go out occasionally with friends and to be honest I enjoy the company a lot more now, because we don’t see as much of each other!

Look at it another way, if you associate with successful people and you become successful then by default the people who associate with you will also become successful to a certain degree!

That’s something everybody wants for their family and friends!
