You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with! It is very likely you have heard this saying and there is any even better chance that you simply ignored it.
Building a community of like minded people who have the same goals as you is abolsutley imperative that for you to reach your goals. Your circle needs to be tight and you need to protect who comes in at all cost.As a coach I now fully admit that we can have a huge impact over a player, but not as much as their entire community can have.
