[0:09]
Who you around set the course of your life. The people you spend the most time with shape who you are. They determine what conversations dominate your attention. Eventually, you start to think as they think and behave as they behave.
Building your squad
[2:27]
The more you start associating yourself with other people who have gone ahead of you, the more you are giving yourself more opportunity to break out of that comfort zone to expand your comfort zone. One person following one person may not be suitable for the same reason because your comfort zone can remain limited to a certain degree.
Surround yourself with people you admire.
[4:02]
We become like the people we want to surround ourselves with. As a result, investing time with people who are already who you want to be will help you drive your personal development in the direction you desire. This will infect you with the habits and perceptions that contributed to their success, increasing the likelihood that you will produce similar outcomes in your life.
