Hi, this is Leo Buttari with the What Anyone Can Do Minute, and today I'd like to share a little wisdom from Raphael Gordon, most certainly one of my favorite people. He's an international speaker that inspires people of all ages all over the world, and one of the ways he's able to do that is Raphael surrounds himself with really great people, and he really does, and he surrounds himself with people who can help him get what he wants so that he can inspire more people to get what they want. And it becomes, you know, an essential part of who he is. But one of the great pieces of advice that he gave during the What Anyone Can Do podcast one time is that it's not only important to surround yourself with the right people, but you also have to take stock of who's in your circle and make sure that you don't have squares in your circle, as he described it. And he said, you know, when you have squares in your circle, Those are the people that he's referring to as those who are a negative influence, who aren't going to help you, who are either going to hold you at bay or even hold you back. So with that, keep squares out of your circle.
