Motivational Power Quote

 

Associate With People of Good Quality

"Associate yourself with men of good quality

if you esteem your our reputation;

for tis better be alone than in bad company."

George Washington, 1st  President of the United States

   

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Associate with people of good quality 

Choosing success is in choosing our associations. Choose your associations wisely with people of good character and strong values.   

People will judge us by the people we associate with. Based on the people were associating with, people will either look up to us or they looked down on either way it's based on our associations.    

A person's reputation is the corner of their person life and business. It's the way people see us and evaluate us. Protect your reputation by associating with people of good quality.  Your association with support you in your personal and business endeavors.          

It's far better to stand along then to associate with someone that will diminish our reputation.   

The words of a Founding Father ring true today as it did in 1745.
