Your environment always wins

Today I'll show you why your environment determines success or failure and how to surround yourself with the right people.


I have an acquaintance who is never easy to please.


One day it was relatively cold, and then he said, "The weather is so cold. It's so bad."


The next day it was warmer, and then he said, "The weather is so hot."


He always complained about something different.


Sometimes the interest rates are too high, sometimes they're too low.


There's always a problem.


But the problem isn't the weather or the interest rates.


The problem is the person.


They're negative and always see the glass half-empty.


But if you always surround yourself with such people, you'll also be negative yourself.


You'll also complain, "It's so hot," instead of enjoying the nice weather.


And if everyone else says we should take on consumer debt and lease a nice car, you'll do it too. Because everyone else is doing it.


If you want to be successful, if you want to be wealthy, you can only do that if you surround yourself with people who are.


If you surround yourself with poor, negative, lazy people, you will be.


Show me the five people you surround yourself with most, and you will see yourself.


That's a clear rule.


You may get along very well with a few friends. You don't want to lose them either.


But they won't help you achieve your goals.


If you want that, you have to find people who will help you.


People who can give you ideas, with whom you can exchange ideas, who can coach you, who can help you move forward.


In the end, you decide your environment.


If you have high financial goals, you have to surround yourself with such people.


If you don't, your chances of being highly successful are significantly lower.


Good luck!
