The people we surround ourselves with have a profound impact on our mindset, self-esteem, and overall success. Steve Goodier’s quote serves as a powerful reminder to be intentional about the company we keep.
Criticizers and negative influences can drain our energy, plant seeds of doubt, and hold us back from reaching our full potential. Their words and attitudes can make us second-guess ourselves, causing hesitation and fear. Over time, constant criticism—whether subtle or overt—can diminish confidence and create unnecessary barriers to personal growth.
Who do you spend time with? Criticizers or encouragers. Surround yourself with those who believe in you. Your life is too important for anything less………. Steve Goodier.
On the other hand, encouragers lift us up. They see our potential, believe in our dreams, and remind us of our strengths when we forget them ourselves. They challenge us to become better, not through harsh judgment, but through support, wisdom, and motivation. Encouragers inspire us to take bold steps, overcome obstacles, and strive for greatness.
Life is too valuable and too short to spend time with those who do not believe in us. When we surround ourselves with positivity, we create an environment where we can thrive confidently, grow, and pursue our purpose. Choose to be in the company of those who celebrate your success, support your journey, and remind you of your worth—even in moments of doubt.
