No one does anything great alone.

When learning how to change your life for the better, don't forget that you need others' support.

What's more, you also need to manage people who actively hold you back or discourage you from changing your life. As the author John Eliot said, "As soon as anyone starts telling you to be 'realistic,' cross that person off your invitation list."

Look, many people instinctively won't like it when you start to make changes in your life – but it doesn't mean they're bad people. Remember, change is scary, uncomfortable, and unnerving.

Still, if you want to transform your life, you may need to protect yourself from people who unconsciously try to pull you back into your old self.

As a result, changing your life can often mean changing your friends.

Keep in mind this quote from the motivational coach Steve Maraboli: "If you hang out with chickens, you're going to cluck and if you hang out with eagles, you're going to fly."

Whatever you do, don't forget that the people you spend time with have enormous influence over your life.

Act accordingly.
