We like to think of ourselves as our own person, but really we’re mirrors of our environment.
An incredible amount of how we act and think are influenced by those around us, especially our close relationships like partners, colleagues and friends.
Pay special attention to how your energy and mindset reflect the environment you’re in, and you’ll start to wonder how much of what you do is genuinely you.
But before you feel discouraged that you’re more of a mirror than a unique individual, consider instead what you can do with this awareness.
If you put yourself in environments that have desired characteristics, it’s likely you’ll embrace these characteristics.
And the reverse is also true.
If you project a certain energy and mindset in a room, it’s likely that the people around you will begin to reflect these characteristics too.
