Choose those that you associate with wisely (similiar or higher values, goals and motivation) →

Getting through life requires some help. The challenge is to pick your friends and associates wisely. Everyone we meet is a connection, but we can choose those whose influence we allow to impact us.

The African Proverb advises that if you want to go far, going together with others is sound advice. It certainly brings home the point that on a long trip, you will need help, but it misses the reality that the longer the trip, the more problem bad companions become.

Choose dependable, honest people who you are proud to know for your trip through life. Find people you admire and who have shared values.

In Choose Friends wisely, Need Friends in Life, African Proverb Tags friends, Companions, life
