Why the people you mix with impact your chances of success

Have you heard this famous quote from Jim Rohn: “We are the average of the five people we spend the most time with, so choose them carefully”?

But this message has often been misunderstood and so deserves a closer look.

Most of us can’t simply “choose” our family or our colleagues, yet the principle behind the quote still carries enormous weight.

The real question is this: who are you intentionally learning from?

In a fast‑changing environment, the people you draw insight, ideas and inspiration from can shape your growth more than you realise.

Give it a watch, it might just reshape how you think about the people who influence your growth.

Let’s build the life we want, one smart decision at a time.
