Importance of Surrounding Yourself with High Performers
To improve behavior, it is crucial to surround oneself with individuals who are playing at the desired level. The brain's mirror neuron system enables us to subconsciously model the behavior of those around us. If we spend time with high performers, we are likely to adopt their productive habits and mindset. Conversely, being around individuals with negative behaviors or a lack of ambition can influence us negatively.
Emotional Contagion and Peer Influence
Emotional contagion, where we absorb the emotions of those in our social circle, highlights the significance of choosing our peer groups wisely. Being around motivated and productive individuals can inspire us to improve our own energy and work ethic. Therefore, surrounding oneself with A players who are innovative and dedicated can lead to personal growth and optimization.
