Why You Should Stop Learning From Your Peers

Here’s a secret I learned long ago. It’s a big one and it’ll propel you into a future of greatness…


STOP TAKING SOCIAL CUES FROM YOUR PEERS.

Instead of taking social cues from people your age, take cues from people ten and twenty years older than you.


Are you looking for a church that has a lot of people who are your age so you can hang out? That’s fine, but try looking for one where most of the people have families and perhaps a little grey hair.


Why?


Because the sooner you can relate to their priorities, the sooner you’ll be ready for the next stage of your life. I’m in my late thirties but I’m more interested in hanging out with people who are retired.


What’s it teaching me?


It’s teaching me that what ultimately matters later in life are friendships, family and love.
