Welcome to Day 5, the final day of the Be The Exception challenge! We look back at the treasure accumulated: reclaiming 100% control of your life (Day 1), putting a lid on your punch bowl by avoiding gossip and politics (Day 2), getting the jackpot winning move by starting your 10-cent investment plan (Day 3), and gaining a new perspective on your incredible potential (Day 4).
Today, we need to fortify you with what you need to go forth and prosper. Understand that transformation and realizing your potential is not an event, but an epic heroic journey—a never-ending and always evolving trek. The single most important influence on that ongoing trek will be who you choose to journey with. Depending on your companions, they will either speed you up or slow you down. They will determine the health, the joy, and the drama along the track.
Write this down: Who you travel with determines your destination, and whether you ever even arrive or not. Jim taught that we are the combined average of the five people we hang around the most. You must constantly ask yourself: Who am I around? What are they doing to me? What do they have me reading, saying, going, and thinking? And most importantly, what do they have me becoming?.
As human beings, we unconsciously raise or lower our performance to match the expectations and performance level of our reference group. If you want to take your life to the next level, you must access a higher-performing reference group to associate with.
Your final challenge is to get a picture of who you want to be in 3 years—in health, business, finances, and relationships. Now, look at your current associations. Do they match that vision? Are they an engine that will drive you there or an anchor that will hold you back?. It is time to start making hard choices. You may have to "vote some of them off your island" and replace them with experienced and speedier travelers. Remember the wisdom of Mark Twain: Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions, but the really great people make you feel that you can become great as well.

What's Coming Up on Part 10:
In the next part, we tackle why it is easy to go with the flow—doing what other people do, going where they go, and talking like they talk. We will learn that this "flow" is actually taking you downstream into stagnant waters, also known as mediocrity. If you want success and to fulfill your life’s purpose, you've got to swim upstream and fight the flow, as you were not designed to go with it. We will learn to take the path of most resistance and do what we don't want to do—whether that means working out, ordering the salad, making a difficult call, or saying sorry. You must do an about-face and swim straight against your normal tendencies.
