Everyone’s belief system is shaped by the company they keep. Entrepreneurs are no different in that regard. The differences in beliefs come from the village of advisers people use. For example, fat people who hang around other fat people will not be exposed to better eating habits, will be exposed to negative thinking about being overweight, and will likely continue to struggle with weight issues.
However, a fat person that hangs around with thin people will be exposed to healthier eating habits, be encouraged to lose weight with positive “can do” messages, and stand a good chance of losing weight.
