Surround Yourself

I love this. I came across this saying on Pinterest and think it’s so wise. Isn’t that why we go to Sunday School? Why our parents told us to choose good friends back in the day? Why we went to study groups in college? Why we do challenges on Fitbit? When we want to be successful in something, increase our knowledge and REALLY grow, we do it in groups of people who get it! Senior year of high school I did a Pilates class with a friend multiple times a week. That was one of the fittest times in my life. In college, I’d go to the gym with my friend and we’d push each other on the bikes (while watching LOST) and my legs were the leanest they had ever been. It should come to no surprise that having a group of people in the same boat as you, who are achieving their goals and working hard, brings us our own personal success as well. But so often we get into slumps, think we can do it on our own, but slowly lose passion for those goals. They go on the back-burner and are never achieved.

So, figure out your goals. What do you want to achieve? Find people who are working on the same thing/has achieved it and work with them!
