People Either Come With You or Fall Off
Summary
- As you progress in life, you'll notice that people will either join you on your journey or they won't be able to keep up.
- Individuals may have expectations of how you should act, and if you don't conform, they might react negatively.
- People can respond to changes in your behavior with verbal punishment, avoidance, passive-aggressive comments, or other forms of negative feedback.
- It's important to surround yourself with those who support your personal growth and development.
- Distance yourself from anyone who doesn't contribute positively to your journey toward becoming the person you aspire to be.
- We all have limited space in our lives; prioritize relationships with people who facilitate your progress.

How To Take Action
I would suggest starting by looking at the people around you. Ask yourself, are they helping you grow? If not, it might be time to spend less time with them. Here's what to do:
- Make a list of your friends. Next to each name, write down if they are positive or negative in your life.
- Choose three people from the positive list. Plan to spend more time with them this week.
- Set boundaries with negative folks. If they say things that don't help you, tell them how you feel. If they keep doing it, you may need to see them less.
- Seek out new friends who have goals like yours. Join clubs or groups where you can meet them. Talking with others who understand your journey can be encouraging.
- Create a weekly goal that focuses on personal growth. It could be reading a book, learning a new skill, or improving your health. Do something that makes you better.
Remember, it's okay if people don't stay with you on your journey. Focus on those who do, and keep moving forward. Your time and space are precious. Use them wisely and fill them with people who help you become the best you can be. Keep growing and let go of anything holding you back!
