So in the last two posts we looked at my two friends, one poor and one wealthy, and discussed how that affected my own prosperity.  Rene asked “In which case would you be happier? Can you be ABSOLUTELY sure of that answer. Absolutely being without ANY doubt?”

Last post I told you about my friend Diego, who is the person I am closest to in the world, yet he makes less in five years than I sometimes earn in a weekend.  I questioned what my life would be like if all my close friends were at his socio-economic level.

Great discussion the last two days about moving certain people out of your life, and replacing them with others.  And I want to talk about how you attract positive people.  But a couple of things I want to deal with first.

Last post we looked at how you choose the people in your life.  It’s a polarizing question.  Normally I post in the morning but since I was flying home from London it didn’t get up until 3 pm.  Yet there were about 2,000 hits and a bunch of comments within less than an hour.  

Doesn’t that title today sound callous?  I mean here we are talking about upgrading people, much like we would a new car model.  It sounds very cold, calculating and selfish.

It’s sure easy to get busy.  And the more successful you get, the easier it is to get busier.  And that’s where the danger comes in…

So here’s the story behind the story.  Tony Robbins had a new show on NBC about creating breakthroughs.  It lasted two weeks and was replaced by a cheesy game show called “Minute to Win It.”  This says a lot more about the consciousness of the viewing public than the quality of the show.  

The last post on what you must do to counter-program against memes created some interesting comments.  Let’s look at little deeper at the issue of the people around you…

So in yesterday’s post we discussed the mind viruses in organized religion.  I challenged you and asked what made your religious beliefs “the truth.”  And then asked you if you got your beliefs from critical thinking or programming.  

A while back we looked at the difference between a philosophy and a meme complex.  We know that a meme complex is a condition of mutually supporting memes (a/k/a mind viruses) that form a belief system.
