It's true that you adapt to your surroundings. You become the average of the 5-6 people around you. It's important to stay away from people who lack ambition, have no goals, and are constantly negative and complaining. I started doing this late, but I don't complain. Interacting with successful people, talking to them, or doing any kind of activity with them, fuels ambition and leads to success.
There's a common saying that your five closest friends will determine your destiny for the next five years. And it's true. If you have close friends who are ambitious, eager to learn, and, if you're lucky, have privileges and good connections, then it's only a matter of time before you achieve the same success. I believe that we are no different from our close friends. Because social relationships are closely related to mindset, connections, and opportunities for success. If your closest friends are privileged, such as wealthy parents or connections, then you'll be able to succeed as a businessperson, or at least you'll get a high-paying job and be able to learn from your social friends.
