You are the average of the 5 chimps you hang out with
Who Is In Your Zoo?
Hello friend,
Biologists have a theory about chimpanzees. If you put a chimp in a group of calm chimps, it becomes calm. If you put it in a group of anxious, aggressive chimps, it becomes anxious and aggressive.
We like to think we are sophisticated humans, but we are just chimps in suits. We absorb the energy of our environment.
Jim Rohn said, "You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with."
Look around you. Are your friends talking about ideas, growth, and the future? Or are they talking about other people, the news, and how bad the economy is?
If you are the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong room.
This is the Mastermind Principle. When two or more minds come together in harmony for a specific purpose, a third, invisible, "Master Mind" is created. This third mind has access to power that one individual does not.
You need to protect your mind. You wouldn't let someone dump trash in your living room, so why let them dump negative garbage in your mind?
Sometimes this means you have to love people from a distance. It means you need to consciously seek out a new tribe—a group of people who are running toward the same Type C goals you are.
The more you read my emails, the more success you will have because, in a way, we are forming a Mastermind right now. You and I. We are agreeing on the potential of your future.
You will be grateful for having clicked the links in my email because it connects you to a community of builders, dreamers, and doers who will pull you up, not drag you down.
It has been an honor to share these two weeks with you. We have covered the mind, the laws, the strategies, and the habits.
The only thing left is for you to step into the role. The script is written. The stage is set.
Action.
