The Fast & Furious Five

In the May issue of Men’s Fitness,
Tyrese Gibson,
star of Fast & Furious Five,
shares

“You can often tell the way
your career or life is going
by looking at the five people
you spend the most time with.
Your inner circle is
a direct reflection
of who you are.
Change those
– if you aren’t all on the same page –
and it will change your life.”

I know, I know,
we’ve talked about this before,
and we will talk about it again
in the future.

Why?

Because it is true.

It is damn difficult to work all weekend
when your five best buddies
are sending you drunk texts
from their cottages.

On the flip side,
you will feel like a lazy bum
if you take the weekend off
and your five best buddies
are busting their humps
working to make their dreams come true.

So success is easy, right?
Simply surround yourself with five successful people,
and you’re likely to be successful too.

Sure, but WHY would these five successful people
want you to be one of THEIR five?
Ahhh… you see the challenge.
You have to earn your spot as one of their five.

Surround yourself with success
and justify your place in that circle.
