It's human nature to surround ourselves with people who are on the same level as us, or, worse, slightly lower than us.

By "level", I don't mean their level as a human (we're all the same in that aspect)...What I mean is their level of success.

When you surround yourself with people on the same level as you, you get comfortable where you are and stop making progress.

When you surround yourself with people lower than you, you think you've made it to the top because...well...you're further along than everyone around you.

Whether you're trying to build a multi-million dollar business or run a sub 3-hour marathon, the best way to push yourself and get better is to find people who are slightly better than you and let them pull you up to the next level.

ACTION:

When you feel yourself getting too comfortable with your current situation, ask yourself how you can find someone to bring into your life that is further along than you. Then use them as motivation to bring your results to the next level.
