You are the average of five people you spend the most time with!

I came across this thought in an article I read in mashable, as part of the advice given by some successful entrepreuner on how to become a millionaire before the age of thirty. I had never heard this thought before. Immediately, my mind scanned its recent memory for the people I do spend a lot of time with. And I think I have a pretty good bunch here.
This is what the thought offers. If you spend more time with people who are more ambitious, who are go-getters, then you are more likely to repeat the same feat in your life. The thought was offered to emphasize the importance of networking, to meet more peoPle, and to meet the right kind.
It also gives you another perspective that you are capable of influencing the life of people you interact with.
