People who try to bring you down are already below you.
In this great video, Les Brown reminds us that the people with whom we associate have a major influence on our success.
As such we need to be around those people who are seeking to achieve and to push themselves- not those who are negative and disinterested in improving their life.
Being aware of the negative influences in your life, as well as your own negative qualities, beliefs or habits – and eliminating them – is an important shift change on your way to success.
