The Code: A Guide to Health and Human Performance

144. What Do You Want Your Average to Be?

Listen Later

“What do you want your average to be, knowing that we are going to be a relative average of about the five people that we spend the most time around?” Dr. Andrew Fix asks us to take a hard look at our community and surroundings. Are the people closest to us lifting us toward our goals or holding us back? In this episode, he talks about the role that our environment plays in shaping our health, performance, and mindset. Drawing from a recent talk with high school students, Dr. Fix explains how our relationships can either move us forward or keep us stuck.

 

Although we may not be able to change the people around us, we do have control over the people we choose to spend time with. So, are you intentionally choosing people who inspire and support the person you want to become? Dr. Fix’s insights serve as a reminder that building a community aligned with our ambitions isn’t just beneficial; it is also essential.
