"There's a rule I call The 9/10ths Rule. It says that if 9 of your friends are broke, you will be the 10th." -Coach Felicia, Essence magazine
The 9/10ths Rule could apply to anything. If 9 of your friends have unhealthy lifestyles, you will be the 10th. If they're negative, unmotivated individuals who complain about how the world has treated them, you will be the 10th. It's important to choose your circle carefully.
This week's action: Join a professional organization, a club, or even a group on LinkedIn that meets one of the following criteria:
- Aligns with one of your goals this year (e.g. If your goal is to run more, join a running club)
- Aligns with your current/future profession (e.g. I want to be an author, so I joined a literary group)
Why we're doing it: So the other 9 can be closer to your 10.
Psst...we're still actin' up! It's the end of the month, so it's time for another month-end action blitz. Plus it's Week 9 so make sure you're still on your savings plan.
