Highly educated people like to associate with other highly educated people. Physically fit people like to associate with other fit people. People with a deep-seated belief in a particular faith associate with others of the same faith. It is human nature to be attracted to like-minded people. Like attracts like.
However, the savvy entrepreneur with a million dollar a year company does not want to associate with other owners of a million dollar a year company. He wants to associate with owners of 10 or 100 million dollars per year companies to expand his thinking. By expanding his thinking, he hopefully catapults his business to new heights by learning how the more successful businessman thinks. Most people are happy just watching the game while the successful entrepreneurs are playing the game.
Which one are you? Do you prefer like-minded people or people that occupy a place where you aspire to be?
