The people that you surround yourself with, you are going to become more alike.
Think about the people who surround you now.
Think about how they provide value in your life.
A lot of people feel like they are hurting their loved ones whenever they cut people out from their life. I want you to know that it is not selfish of you to want to improve your life. It is not selfish of you to want to improve who is around you and what they are making your life look like.
With that being said, if you are surrounding yourself with 5 people who are stagnant in life; 5 people who are miserable, grumpy, unenthusiastic about life as a result you stop believing in yourself as much.
If you’re in a place in your life where you are unhappy, hurting, unenergetic, miserable, I want you to take a look at who is surrounding you. Those people can be the reason you feel that way, the reason you feel like you just cannot succeed.
I want you to find a hobby that you love, take dance lessons, go painting, go to the movies. I want you to think about what you enjoy, what makes you happy, what gives your days meaning. That is how you are going to find your tribe, that’s how you’ll find the people that lift you up in life.
Keep in mind, there are always going to be negative people trying to work their way into your life. You’re going to have a lot of people who are not cheering for you, who don’t want you to grow.
But.. Its not about them. I’ll say it one more time – it is not about them. Your life is about you, your happiness, what you can provide for the people you love and care about.
You don’t have to stop caring for the people who were there for you, I just limit the time that I spend with them because they aren’t bettering my life. I’ll always love them and support them, but they aren’t beneficial to who I want to be.
The person by your side two years from now may not be the person by your side five years from now.
Its normal in life to outgrow people.
Growth is part of living.
Growth is part of thriving.
