Social Contagion

Social Contagion~I love this term!  It means socially, we are CONTAGIOUS!  So the scenario looks like this:  you want to make money in your chosen profession, you aren't quite sure how, you decide to hang with people who are successful in their field and it shows because they are making the kind of money you want to make.  You start learning the how part and as easy as monkey see, monkey do, you start to get the hang of this profession and the pay off, the reward, is the paycheque.  Thats social contagion, a rubbing off of someone else's excellency and by association, you too become excellent. Tell me who you spend your time with and I will tell you who you are...we all know this is true.  You can try until the cows come home to pull someone up but if they don't want to take the trip, they will eventually pull you down.  You get to choose.  Look around you, what and who do you see and more importantly, do you want to catch what they have?
