Hire and fire your friends
There is a good old saying and it goes like this ... "you are the sum of your 5 closest friends", there is an add on to that that says "and you will earn the mean of the 5 of them."
And it's true, the 5 closest people around you become your culture and depending on what you want in life you may or may not be happy with that. You may not fit in and you may be looking for a way out.
Now the whole idea of this post is not to tell you go and fire all your friends and get new friends ... trust me that takes to much time and it isn't the best thing to do. what I'm saying is... understand what you want in life and find the people who either have that or on their way to having that, go find those people who want what you want and make them your friends so you can mutually prosper.
It's the whole
thing, where your friends will be attracted to you by the VIBE or the feeling you put out.
By this, I mean changing yourself to the person you want to attract people of like mind towards you.
Now firing is the easy part by hiring takes time and if you run your circles like businesses you are sure to come out on top with all these amazing friends .... right ... PROBABLYYYY not.
You have to actually care about the people who you want in your life for them to stay because making a friend is easy but keeping a friend ... that's the hard part.
When you find someone you want in your life the only thing you should be doing is investing time into them, it isn't money it isn't long car rides and taking them to where ever they want its time, and the more you put in the more you get out ... in theory...
because you will find those people who use you even if you want them in your circles they will just use you until you realize it and whats the title of this post ..... and what are you gonna do with people like that .... exactly
and when you finally find the people you want as your friends and want to take you up to new heights don't forget that "you are the sum of your 5 closest friends" and keep moving on up.
PS. I'm not saying to use people that's the complete opposite I'm only saying get rid of the people who you feel may be holding you down or move out of the people who you feel are keeping you back from what you want to do and find people who are doing.
Look at this article for one person you should never associate with https://goo.gl/DMBPIv
