CONNECTION IS SHAPED BY THE COMPANY YOU KEEP
Human minds synchronise.Thought patterns sync.Emotional states sync.Behaviours sync.Standards sync.
You become similar to the people you connect with most consistently — not because you mimic them consciously, but because minds naturally harmonise.
This is why choosing your company is a powerful act of self-leadership. You are not immune to the influence of others — no one is. Connection works both ways: you absorb, and you project.
The right people elevate you. The wrong people distort you.
Choose your connections with precision.
Exercise (5 minutes)
Write two people who elevate your mind. Write two who drain it. Then write: “I choose connections that strengthen me.”
