“Reciprocal altruism means if you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours.” - Tai Lopez (click to tweet) Try ZipRecruiter FOR FREE at ziprecruiter.com/tai It’s easy to find yourself in the wrong crowd. As our careers and businesses grow, more and more people come into our lives. They may want connection or friendship, but more often than not, they are acting from a place of selfish intention.

By implementing a stronger filter, we can ensure that those we spend our time with are the people having the greatest impact on our lives.
