The Importance of Peer Groups

When you're part of a great group and when all the people in the group are wonderful, it's an effortless feeling. Jim Rome talked about this: We are the average of the five people we spend the most time with. If you hang around these negative people, these foolish people, you just are very likely going to become more and more foolish,. More and more negative. On the other hand, same idea. If you're kind of average and you hang around those who are more positive than you, they will influence you even though you don't want to. This just happens. So again, choosing well is great. Choosing badly is dangerous.
