The importance of choosing your tribe wisely We're All Idiots

There is a well-known saying that you are a reflection of the five closest people around you. Look at those individuals that you are closest to and recognise how similarities between you and them lie. Is it a coincidence that you may have the same beliefs values work ethic etc?

As important as it is to recognise who the five closest people are to you and how that may affect you it is just as important to choose your tribe wisely. I am not saying that you should disconnect from your current tribe but perhaps if you have a desire to change your life you may need to surround yourself with different individuals.

Building habits alone is a very difficult thing however when your environment is also making it difficult for you to build such habits it is almost impossible. For example if you decide that you wish to stop smoking and your closest five friends all smoke it doesn’t matter how hard you try your environment continues to bring your old habit back towards you. This can be applied across pretty much any habits.

In this episode we dive into how best to build new habits and just how important it is to surround yourself with individuals you want to be like.
