Jim Rohn in his book talked about the Law of Association that says you’ll become
the average of the five people you spend the most time with.
You’ll think how they think, act how they act, talk how they talk, and earn how they earn. If you think about it and observe the people around you, you'll come to believe that this law is real. You can’t fight it.
I’ve done three things when it dawned on me that my association greatly affects my productivity as a person.
First, I’ve disassociated with the people who were toxic to my life, they bring you down at any given opportunity they. This isn’t an easy decision, but it’s an important one. Some people will keep you down permanently.
Second, I’ve limited my associations with negative people or people who weren’t helping me grow in the direction of my dreams. They never see anything great in your ideas. Negative people have a problem to every solution! I’ve just learned to spend less time with those people and more time on positive influences.
And third, I’ve worked to expand my associations with people who can help me become a better person and a better professional. If you’re trying to learn to become an expert in any field of your choice especially the Network Marketing Profession, it make sense to find a way to spend more time with the people who have the skills you’re looking for.
If this is a little too stressful to think about when you’re looking at the five people you’re spending your time with
right now, here’s a little tip: About every six months, one of the people in your five will change. They’ll move, get a new job, start a relationship, end a relationship—something will happen. The secret is, when that happens, choose very wisely when you’re thinking about who’s going to take their place. Most people don’t think about this at all. They just let the next person fall into that place. That’s a big mistake. Find someone
who will push you, who will criticize you constructively. Find someone who will inspire you!!
