Who You Surround Yourself With

There’s a saying in Spanish, “Dime con quién te juntas y te diré quién eres.”

“Tell me who you associate with and I’ll tell you who you are.”

Whether we like it or not, a portion of who we are comes from the people that we surround ourselves with. We’re exposed to their biases and interests by simply being around them. Take note of who these people are in your life. Ensure that they are not only a reflection of yourself but a reflection of who you want to be.
