Jim Rohn If you want to rise to new levels in your life you must be choosy about who you hang out with.  An anonymous Strongpreneur Podcast listener asked… "I need to find some new friends who are open-minded and will push me forward instead of pulling me down like some of the knuckle-heads I’m hanging with today.
