00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			I said this the other day. There's a
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:02
			difference between your friends and your brothers. If,
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			for example, I was to Slack on anything,
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:05
			do you think these are not gonna sit
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:07
			and just not tell me, not stick it
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:09
			on me? Like, what are you doing? Pick
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			yourself up. Go pray. Go do the Yeah.
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:13
			There's no room for errors in your circle.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			Your circle needs to be tight. The The
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:16
			people that you are around are the people
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:17
			that you become around. Hang around people that
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			are better than you, but that you don't
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			mind becoming like. It's it's that simple. If
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:22
			you haven't got people that you don't mind
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			being like or people in a better state
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:25
			than you, you haven't really got a good
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			Give me the example of yesterday when we
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:28
			went to the gym as well. We finished
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			our workout and we all gathered together. We
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31
			went to pray together. It doesn't matter where
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			you are, what you're doing. You have to
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			be around those kind of people who are
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:36
			gonna remind you about the prayer. I'll give
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			you an example. When it goes to gym,
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39
			yeah, I work out with Yusuf and another
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			guy called Angus. They're both twice my size.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			Wherever you wanna get anything in that, they
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			need to be able to teach you something.
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45
			Mhmm. Otherwise, it's unnecessary.
