Why You Should Surround Yourself With People Who Share Your Values
Followers included
“We like people who are similar to us. This fact seems to hold true whether the similarity is in the area of opinions, personality traits, background, or life-style.”
Robert B. Cialdini
It’s true in life and on Medium. You follow writers you admire because they are similar to you and they inspire you, they help you become a better person. They are reference points — you identify with them, you share their values. They care about you, and you care about them.
As a person, and a writer, you can generate trust in your followers if you tell them who you really are, what steps you will take to fulfill your dreams, and help them in their journey.
That’s why choosing the persons who surround you makes the difference in your life, and in theirs.
