 “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!
