Your peeps are the people you spend the most time with. Whether you want them to or not, these people are having an impact on you. Your peeps are a huge indicator of what you will achieve in your life. Are you choosing your peeps wisely?
Sometimes we spend time with people we wouldn’t deliberately choose to hang out with. Family and coworkers are great examples of people who influence us but we wouldn’t normally consider our peeps.
Instead, we like to think of our friends as our peeps. We deliberately choose to spend our time with them. And we can choose people who share similar values with us. We may have peeps that are cool, fun or supportive. They may like the same activities we like. They may hang out at the places where we hang out.
Whether we consider the people around us our peeps or not, it’s very important to be aware of how they impact us. Do they lift us up or do they tear us down? Do they encourage us or do they discourage us? Are they possibility thinkers or do they look for reasons why something won’t work?
When possible, it is beneficial to limit our exposure to negative people. Similarly, there is great benefit to bringing more of the right people into our lives. Do your peeps support you in living a life of significance? Do they call you to live the greatness you are capable of living? Is it time to add in some new peeps who can accompany you on your journey to make your life matter?
