Everyone is trying to influence you.

Sometimes good, sometimes bad.

Ultimately, you need principles.

Otherwise, you'll get influenced in all directions.

Good & bad.

But mainly bad because most do not have your best interests in mind.

They have their best interest in mind.
'Most people do not have my best interests in mind??'

Nope.

They have their best interests in mind

Which is why you need to stop getting brainwashed so easily ...👇
Influencing is what keeps the world moving.

Without some form of influence, you won't take action.

So influence has good & bad
The Good:

These people have integrity.

They want to:

☆Influence you to become your best self.

☆Offer you a top quality product or service to better your life.

☆Teach you ideas to make you more aware.
The Bad:

These people can't spell integrity.

They want to:

☆Sell you shit to make a quick buck.

☆Get you outraged for ratings.

☆Give you short term solutions.
Now here's a truth.

▪︎They often aren't maliciously trying to harm you.

▪︎But they are doing actions to further benefit themself.

'Aren't the 2 the same?'

Not quite.

And that's when the problem arises..
The mainstream media.

They profit from outrage & sensationalism.

So they push it to further their business.

Do they have malicious intent towards you?

Nah. They don't even know who you are.

But they favor their interests over yours.

Even if your sanity depends on it.
You have to understand, just because people don't have a malicious intent does not mean they still can't harm ya.

Their desire to further advance their own agenda will have them using you as a sacrificial lamb.
'Gee whiz! I'm scared.'

You are scared because you lack principles.

'Principles?? What the fuck does that have to do with everything!'

It is the antidote to getting brainwashed.
'How?'

Because it clarifies your life & how you move.

You aren't swayed & brainwashed so easily.

Rather, you have a foundation to base your moves off.
Having principles is one thing.

Any goober can have some.

But what separates the goobers from the winners is the ability to abide by the principles.

'Even when they don't feel like it?'

Especially when they don't feel like it
People with 0 integrity only follow principles when they feel like it

But that conditions a weak foundation to their subconscious mind.

These people will throw you under the bus if the right opportunity presented itself.
People who follow their principles even when they don't feel like it see the bigger picture.

They realize everytime they break their foundations, the easier they are to being brainwashed.

And people who are susceptible to brainwashing ain't confident.

Not to the core
No need to write a whole book of it.

Have a few that you follow.

You will continue to add on more as you evolve.
A few of mine:

☆Double down on people that show me love & ignore haters/wishy washy people

☆Build a legacy of giving value, not backstabbing & stirring shit

☆Level up for life
You need 3 that can help you get some direction.

I've know plenty of people who skipped this step in their level up journey & now they lost their way

Joining any new group that comes up, falling victim to nonsense & getting influenced by the wrong ppl
If most others aren't going to have your best in mind, then you need to have your best in mind.

Stop looking for so many role models.

Rather, become your own.
As you become your own role model, you'll see what you want out of life.

Your principles will solidify.

And you will attract & be drawn to other people with like principles.
It was Warren buffet or someone who said..

You want people in your team who have:

☆Integrity
☆Intellect
☆Creativity

If they don't have integrity then the other 2 don't matter.

You don't want a snake to have intellect & creativity.

You want them to be dumb as a rock.
Summary:

Be a person of principles & follow it.

Attract people with similar principles.

Influence yourself.

Influence others.
A lotta sheep floating around.

Groupthinkers.

Not here though.

I speak solely from my experiences & insights.

Not someone else's.
