5x5 Rule

I stumbled upon this paradigm. It’s worth contemplating and reflecting upon. It’s so easy to get sucked into a familiar routine preventing us from living an intentional, meaningful, and rich life. This framework is helpful.

The 5x5 rule is:

  • you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.

  • your health is the average of the 5 foods you eat the most.

  • your mental state is the average of the 5 things you think about the most.

  • your creativity is the average of the five works of art you spend the most time trying to read or watch or understand.

  • your ability to be loved is the average of the five things you most do that are lovable.
