"You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with." ~ Jim Rohn
Tony Robbins likes to share Jim Rohn's adage that you are the average of the five people with whom you spend the most time. Think about that. And make a list, 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!
