The Power of the Company You Keep


When I was a young boy growing up in my village, I’d sometimes see bicycle riders latch onto the back of passing vehicles(not recommending that). With almost no effort, they’d suddenly be gliding faster.

Or take an ant slipping into the pocket of a man travelling overseas: no ticket, no visa, no immigration check, yet it lands in a new country. Weird? Funny? Absurd? Sure.

But they highlight an important truth: the right company can accelerate your journey and open doors, you never thought possible.

The flip side is equally true. The wrong company doesn’t just slow you down, it can drain your energy, stagnate your progress, even pull you into a downward spiral

Surround yourself with people who add value to your journey, who lift you, challenge you, and inspire you to grow. Not those who feel threatened by your progress and try to drag you down.

And yes, such people exist. We can’t avoid them completely. But we can choose how much space we give them in our journey. Seek the company of those whose presence propels you forward.

People call me aggressive, people think I am intimidating, People say that I am a hard nut to crack. But I guess people young or old do like hard nuts -- Isnt It? :-)
