Recipe for Resolution #16 - Seek Wisdom


Surround yourself with advisors or “board members.” You can have a board member or advisor on your team without them even knowing it. These advisors may also be part of your tribe.

My grandparents were happily married for over 60 years - until death did they part – so they were my advisors when it came to relationship issues. When my divorced friends or “player” friends offered relationship advice, I said “thank you for sharing” and promptly forgot what they said.

Seek “advisors” that are very good at the things you need help with. Aside from giving reliable, proven advice, they will also hold you accountable to your goals and commitments. Remember, you become the average of the 5 people who you spend the most time with.
