78  You Rise In The Right Room

High performance isn’t just about what you do.
➡️ It’s shaped by who you’re around.

🚀 The right people don’t just support you – they activate you.
🚀 They challenge your ideas, celebrate your wins, and sharpen your edge.

💡 Great environments stretch your thinking without draining your energy.
The best relationships don’t just offer comfort – they create constructive pressure, which:

keeps you moving forward
holds you to high standards (because there is belief in your potential)
comes with support, not fear
promotes growth, not burnout

Want to think bigger? Be bolder?
Surround yourself with people who want more for you – and believe more of you.

🎯 Try this today:

🔹 Think of how people in your life affect your energy.
→ Who brings out your best?
→ Who quietly dulls it?
→ And who, let’s be honest, drains you like a Dementor?
🔹 Reach out to one person who lifts you – schedule a quick call, coffee, or chat.
🔹 You might not be able to avoid every Dementor, but noticing their effect helps you protect your energy better.

💥 This is about consciously choosing who gets your energy – and who fuels it.

🔄 Now ask yourself this:
What’s it like to be on the other side of me?
Am I lifting people, or quietly draining them?
