The effect that environment has on us.

Do you believe environment and people can change someone for better or for worse? One of my favourite quotes is; “you're the average of the five people you surround with the most” When i started in real estate i was lucky to find colleagues that were more experienced and among the best in the field. By surrounding myself with them i saw my mindset, performance and luck change just by being around them. This was also confirmed in my social life and through the clients I dealt with. In my experience it makes a difference to be around those that have a positive outlook or virtues that embody; moral ethics, discipline, light heartedness, resilience etc.. The right people and environments that encourages growth and abundance have ever lasting change on someone.How does your current environment affect you?
