You might already have heard about the following phrase:

“You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with”

That’s probably true for most people. People around us shape our life immensely whether we accept it or not.

I heard about this advice on the internet and I thought of sharing with everyone:

  1. Take out a piece of paper and write the name of your close friends and family members.
  2. Then make a second column and rate them in the terms of positivity and negativity.
  3. If the person is positive, give him/her 10 and if the person is negative, give him/her 1.
  4. From tomorrow, start spending time more time with people who scored 10 on your list.

I am not saying to completely cut off the negative people from your life. If your parents always complain about life, start spending less time with them. Call them once a day instead of calling them 5–6 times a day.
