Kenny Chapman cites an MIT study showing people's earnings match their five closest friends within $3k to $5k, arguing your peer group shapes your success. He pushes you to intentionally choose people who challenge and support you, then actually go out and build those connections.
Hey, everybody. Kenny Chapman, the blue collar coach, coming to you with this week's video version of Freedom Friday Focus. Now, this week I'm talking to you about the way that you can do yourself a huge favor, do yourself a huge favor and get out there. What do I mean by get out there? MIT recently did a study that said that you earn within three to five thousand dollars of your five closest friends. That reinforces the importance of quality, quality networking, the friends around you. We're coming off of our phenomenal, nationally attended live look event this week at Peterson. And it's not so much about our event, even as I'll say, it's the fact that people need to get together. So we have people come in and they network and you hang around smart people and you challenge yourself. Look at your peer group, look at the people that you hang with. Look at family, friends, business associates, people that are around you. Are they challenging you or are they just kind of flying along the radar? Are they supporting your goals or are they trying to pull you back? Are they pushing you and helping you grow and become more than you are today? Or are they wishing that you would just slow down and make them a little more comfortable? Ladies and gentlemen, do yourself a favor. Get out there and challenge who you're hanging around with. Challenge yourself as to what you're allowing and accepting in your life and see how the quality of your life can improve and your business can improve so greatly by who you're hanging around with and who you're paying attention to. Do yourself a favor and get out there. I'm Kenny Chapman, the blue collar coach. Until we talk again, have a better than fantastic week and I'll see you next time.
