The people that you surround yourself with will directly or indirectly, positively or negatively affect your life and determine how far you'll go. As the famous saying goes, "Show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are." You are an average of four of your friends.
If you want to go far in life, surround yourself with visionary people, dreamers and guys who simply never take No for an answer. Someone once told me that if you're the best guy in the room, it's time to leave and join another room. After all, you can't hang out with chickens and expect to fly. If you aspire to soar higher, walk, talk and stay with eagles.
Friends can make or break someone. The good book clearly paints the picture for us in Proverbs 27:7 - "As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens another."
You ought to have friends who sharpen and challenge you to bring out your inner potential. People who will always make sure you are on your toes and will come through for you in your time of disaster.
Proverbs 18:24 says, "One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother."
Your Environment will automatically determine how far you'll go in life whether you like it or not. Make sure the environment you're in is conducive and allows you to thrive and grow not only physically but both mentally and spiritually.
A water bottle in the supermarket is worth 50bob approximately. Same bottle in a bar is Sh100. In a good restaurant or hotel it can be worth up to Sh200, and at an airport or on a plane, up to Sh500.
The bottle is the same, the brand too. The only thing that changes is the place. Each place gives a different value to the same product.
When you feel zero, you're worthless, when everyone around you despises you, change places, don't stay there.
Have the courage to change your circle and go to a place where they give you the courage you deserve and consider you who you are.
Surround yourself with people who really appreciate your worth. People who encourage you to be a better version of yourself and not folks who are jealous and will bite their tongue when they hear of your success!
Don't settle for less. You are Great and you deserve better! Have a great day ahead!
