社交學中有這樣一個定律：密友五次元理論。它是說將你身邊最親密的5位好友的薪資加起來，然後取平均值，大概就能推算出你的薪資水平了。

身邊的人對自己的影響是潛移默化的，所以，我們要認真想想，平時跟哪些人在一起的時間最長呢？是積極向上的人還是消極懈怠的人？

今天這段材料明確了五類人，與他們一起共度過長的時間，會慢慢影響我們的生活質量。與此同時，我們也要反思自己，不要淪落成這五類人。

Those you choose to surround yourself with, will play a huge part in the quality of your life, or lack of quality in your life.

選擇與什麼樣的朋友相伴，將直接決定你的生命質量。

If you hang around with only angry and negative people… your life will be full of anger and negativity. If you surround yourself with kind, compassionate and positive people, your life will have more kindness, and positive energy.

如果你只和易怒、消極的人在一起，你的生活將充滿憤怒和消極。如果你身邊有善良、有同情心和積極的人，你的生活中將有更多的善良和正能量。

Who you surround yourself with is crucial, and sometimes it is important you reflect on those you are spending the most time with and asking yourself, do I really want these people in my life?

你身邊的人是至關重要的，有時候，你必須要反省，那些在你身邊時間最長的朋友，問問自己，你真的想要這些人在自己的生命裏嗎？

If you have any of these people in your life, it might be time to rethink how much time you spend with them, if any at all. It might not be easy to limit or end all interaction with these people, if they are friends, or family… but if they are not making your life, or theirs better by you spending time together, maybe it’s time for both of you to move on.

如果你的生活中有下面這樣的人，也許是時候重新考慮，你到底應該花多少時間在他們身上。如果他們是你的朋友或家人，減少或者斷絕與他們相處的時間可能並不容易…但是如果你們雙方在一起相處，生活都沒有變得更好，那或許是時候向前邁進一步了。
