Be with good people.

Be with the person you want to be.

What kind of person do you want to be? Are you with someone you want to be like right now? There is a saying called geunmukjaheuk (近墨者黑). It means that those who come close to black become black. It's easy to fall into bad habits when you're around bad people. You need to be with good people to learn and grow. Just as the paper used to wrap incense smells like incense and the fishy smell emanates from the strings tied with fish, a person becomes more like that person as he is influenced by those close to him.

The deepest and strongest influence is that it slowly permeates and resembles you, as if your clothes were getting wet in drizzle without even realizing it. That's why it's so important to have people around you. If you want to develop your skills and grow in value, you need to be next to people who act as role models. People resemble what they see, what they hear, and what they say. I hope you get a lot of good influence next to a good person, and I hope you become a great role model and a person who has a good influence.
