Surrounding Ourselves With Winners

Those of us who have children have no doubt told them at one time or the other that we do not like whom they have chosen as their association. Isnt it funny that we notice the difference in them right away when they are hanging out with someone that they shouldnt. They pick up their habits, personalities, attitudes etc. It is so easy to tell. We as adults also need to monitor who we spend our time with. If we surround ourselves with winners then we will feel like a winner. If we associate with people with bad attitutes we soon will be picking up on their attitudes. We have all heard it said that show me who your friends are and I will tell you who you are. Adults as well as children have peer pressure on a daily basis. We must make wise choices for our children as well as we do for ourselves. We have to surround ourselves with winners. We have to surround ourselves with people who have the same goals in life as we do. If we are married we should surround ourselves with other married couples who are striving for similar aspirations as we are. If we have anyone in our association that brings us down when we are around them then we should cut off that association. It is not difficult to find people with similar goals, aspirations, and ethics that we have. As we raise our kids to surround themselves with good quality people we must do the same. We should re-evaluate ourselves atleast once a week. It is very easy to get off track and get lax with our views. Lets work toward better asscociation and better lives for ourselves and the lives of our children. Cheers, Keith
