hello hello hellooooo!!!
you probably know the saying, "you are who you hang around". i know i have and i've been told it MANYYY times throughout middle and high school.
to be honest, i never really realized how true that statement is until recently. i'm not sure what clicked in my head but here's what i'll tell you:
if you hang around people who are consistently getting into trouble, getting bad grades, are disrespectful to their parents or adults, then you will eventually become that too. you might say, "oh, but they're fun to hang out with and i don't say or do those things!"
that might be true at this moment, but because you are constantly hanging around them, that behavior becomes the norm and you develop those behaviors subconsciously.
on the complete opposite side, there are people that are striving to reach their goals, care about their grades because they know it'll affect their future, and are positive people. in my opinion, those are the people that i want to be around.
those types of people push me to do better and be better as well as influence me to be a more positive person who cares.
so, think about it for a bit. what type of people do you surround yourself with? would you want introduce them to your parents? or your future children? if yes, why? if no, why? do you think there is anything that you might need to rethink?
i hope you enjoyed today and i'll catch you on the next one!!
don't wish for it, work for it.
