Show me your friends and I’ll show you your future.
People you meet on regular basis are shaping your life more than you would ever admit.
It is difficult to be optimist when you spend time with pessimists.
You will not get new ideas and inspiration from people who only talk about other people (instead of ideas, events, opportunities).
You will end up earning +-20% as people you meet on regular basis.
You get same old things if you meet same old people.
If you meet people who have their opinion from TV or newspaper, soon you’ll lose yours.
Think about it and turn all above to you advantage:
Meet people who are optimistic, cheerful and enthusiastic.
Meet people who talk about ideas and opportunities.
Meet people who earn more than you and learn from them.
Meet new people to get new ideas.
Meet people who have their own opinions and are challenging yours
Question to think over is simple: Who Do You Spend Your Time With?

David is totally right, I am a jelaus person as well. But what is meant in this article you can also use not only in your “money” world but in relationships themselves… It’s all about our priorities… problem of many people is that money are the first one, even they’re not able to admitt it… is what sometimes makes me sad… I am not succesfull either. I would appreciate if Marcel would write something about the word Success, it is more broad than it looks, based on his experiences… I consider successfull person, who achived something in his priorities. Whatever they’re about!
I was wondering about this topic myself a few days earlier.
Who are those people I talk to? What are their strenghts and weaknesses? In which way do they influence / improve my life? I was quite surprised about the things I discovered after thinking about this topic.
I like your point about meeting with people who earn more money. It is funny to compare it with the situation in Czech republic, where the most of people are jealous of them and they just insult others, who earn more.
