Why You Should Change Your Circle of Friends

Jim Rohn once stated, “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with".What kind of friends do you have? Do they uplift or depress you? Are they go-archivers, or do they simply sit and criticize?All of this should be considered when creating new friends. However, if your circle of friends fails to lead, support, and educate you. I’m not sure what you’re doing with them. It’s past time for you to move on without them to better your life.Do you want to be successful in life? Then surround yourself with successful individuals. If you surround yourself with five successful people, you will be the sixth. So, make friends with successful people who will encourage you to achieve all of your life goals.I once had friends who prioritised parties above every other thing. When they had parties to go to, they would call me and say, “Hey, my guy, we have a shutdown party coming up this weekend, and we’d love you to be there.” With the energy in their voices, you can’t help but have this vibe that the party will be a blast, and you’ll get to see old friends and make new ones.I’ll accept and spend the rest of the weekend boozing and dancing to different sounds of music, accomplishing nothing. At some point, I gave a thought to my future, where I was going, and so on. I no longer had time to converse with intellectual people who could help me in my life. I got dissatisfied with everything and decided to change my course.So, when I got into the university, I decided not to hang out with such types of people and to reroute my course. Even though several of them attended the same university as me. I refuse to go along with them. I blocked some of their phone numbers, and today, I’m glad and grateful I made a brave decision. Always be aware that you are who you hang around with. Try to be wise and make good decisions that would better your future. Looking at Mark Zuckerberg’s life, he could not have created Facebook without the assistance of his friends Eduardo Saverin, Chris Hughes, and others. They aided him in attaining his goal, and today, Facebook is widely used by individuals from various countries, from which they earn greatly. These are the kinds of people you hang around with. Although I don’t know much about their previous lifestyles.  However, I believe Mark made the right decision in selecting people he called friends. You should also do the same. Have intellectual, creative friends in your circle who do not frequently party. Change your network of friends if you aren’t getting any good energy, motivation, or encouragement.
