Evaluate Those in your Life
This is something a friend of mine wrote on Facebook. It is very true and relevant, so I asked her if it would be okay to post it.
Surround yourself with path makers, instead of circle creators. Path makers are those who continue to lead themselves and are determined to succeed by any means. They hit bumps and run into stormy weather — but that doesn’t stop their stride ; the stormy weather is the additional fuel that drives a Path maker to work even harder! If you ever check to notice, Path makers only associate with other Path makers because they realize the entity of positive company and enforcement. Through life, ALL Path Markers have friends that decided to be Circle creators. It is a Path makers decision to either inspire their Circle creator friend, or leave them behind. Me personally, I left mine…
Circle creators are the individuals that are in your life, whether they are friends, family or foes that are doing the same thing NOW that they were doing LAST year, rationalizing themselves each year.. too scared to create a path for themselves, so they remain content in the perimeter of the circle that they’re in. Too busy talking about the present instead of future which lies ahead. More worried about being a shooting star than the Sun. Circle creators are those who are too afraid to step out by themselves, so they seek others to join their ride. BAD MOVE. Everybody’s Destiny isnt the same as yours.
So live your life and work past your means of success early … while your young, and ahead of the game. Later in life, what little time we do waste (which goes for Path Makers & Circle Creators) you’re going to wish you could’ve went back and did something productive during that time period.
My circle creator friends are cool but… I feed’em with a long handled spoon! You know what you are!
EVERYDAY should be a small step up to an unlimited Destiny. Each year you should be ahead of what you were previously. Last but not least, NEVER measure your success on your material possessions — because material possessions come with a price, and as easy as it is to keep it — is as easy as it is to lose it — it takes years to be successful; create your success to be priceless and inevitable of ever being taken from you. Let’s not cheat ourselves.
Evaluate those PM’s and CC’s in your life… And once you define them, you decide whether their toxic energy in your life or inspiration to keep going.
