Walk with the wise and become wise; associate with fools and get in trouble. – Proverbs 13:20
Who you let speak into your life is important. You might not think about the fact that what you watch, listen to, and even the people you hang out with makes a huge impact in the course your life takes.
You’ll never grow or be exceptional at anything if you don’t hang around others who are exceptional. For example, if you wanted to train to be a better athlete, you’d train with other athletes who were better than you. Training with better athletes would help you improve your game.
The same is true in life. Who we spend time with matters. You should be spending time listening to, reading after, and hanging out with people who challenge you to be better. You’ll never do anything exceptional if you don’t do anything different. Choose today to not just hang out and follow people who are at the same level as you. Choose to find friends, books, podcasts and videos that inspire you to greatness. Like today’s Bible verse says, walk with the wise and become wise. Choose to make any adjustments in your life today to let wise people speak into your life.
