“Associating with the most intelligent, loving, and spiritually enlightened people possible, either in person or via their books and teachings, is the best and fastest way for us to advance, whatever the goal. We rise and fall by our associations, because consciousness is contagious. When we associate with greatness, we become great. When we associate with the angry, envious, and degraded, we too can become angry, envious, and degraded if we allow it. When we are unaware of the influence that others can have on us, we are like sponges soaking up their emotions, beliefs, and words without discrimination. “Garbage in and garbage out” is a computer term that sums up this lesson. The moment we believe and then act on information we receive from any person we become shaped by that information.”
Terry Cole-Whittaker, in “Live Your Bliss”
