Your friends are losing you money
Friends are cool, right?
We all love them and they keep us going.
BUT, you might not realise the damage some of your friends may be causing…
Let me explain.
You know that famous old saying:
“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with”
I used to think this was complete BS.
‘I’m myself, why does it matter who I hang out with?’
Well, that’s where I was wrong.
Luckily, I figured it out fairly quickly.
You see, the people you’re closest to influence you the most.
I mean, imagine a random guy in the street tryna get you to smoke some weed.
You just wouldn’t do it lol.
… at least I hope right?
However, if one of your friends asked you the same question you might be influenced to do it,
ESPECIALLY if there is a big group of them.
The pressure you feel is natural and most of the time people give in and just do it.
This can easily lead to them going down a dark path.
This isn’t your fault though.
Look, you could be flying on your diet plan and losing a load of weight,
UNTIL you get influenced to eat some cake at a party…
Which then leads to it escalating and becoming a more permanent thing,
And just like that, all your progress is gone.
See how easy it is?
You might not even realise it.
I’m not saying cut out all your fat friends 😂
That would just be straight up mean lol.
What I’m tryna get at is that you need to be aware of the people influencing you.
You need to let them know of your goals and that they should respect them, and let you grind.
This way, no one can stop you.
It’s just down to you to work.
That’s easy, I know you got that aha.
I’m done for the day anyways,
Go out and smash yours.
