Are your friends here to support you?

Here’s a test I want you to try out:

Call them and tell them you started a new diet.

See their reaction.

Are they proud?

Are they a bit disappointed?

Or maybe excited?

From this simple call, you’ll know exactly if they’re your friends.

Why do all this?

You see,

We humans are social creatures.

We lived in tribes.

We’re directly influenced by our people.

Our actions,

Our thoughts,

Everything.

And in that tribe,

Friends are what have the most influence on you.

You’re the reflection of the people you spend the most amount of time with.

So why not be around positive people?

Why be around negative people?

Just because they make you laugh doesn’t mean they’re good friends.

Surround yourself with people who challenge you,

Who inspires you,

Who encourages you to become the best version of yourself.

It’s important to be friends with those on the same mission as you or who already achieved your goals.

Don’t feel guilty if you have to cut someone out of your life.

It is a natural part of change.

Cut out the bad influences, and always seek the good ones.

Always the best
