Standing Tall

I am 6'1". This morning I stood in line next to a guy who is roughly 6'8". Unconsciously, I found myself standing with better posture. Even though I wasn't the tallest, I stood tall.

Jim Rohn is credited with saying "You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with." That may not always be the case when it comes to physical attributes, but people do influence your emotions, attitude, work ethic, intellect, etc...

In many cases it may be an unconscious influence, but nothing is stopping you from making a conscious decision to control your environment.

If you want to learn to stand tall, stand with tall people.
