Peer Group Has Powerful Influence Over Our Potential

Alister from Dream Big New Zealand

❓ Are you hanging out with people you'd be super pleased to emulate?

🤩 The reason I ask is our peers have a huge influence over us. We all get that when we're at High School however most of us tend to feel we've forged our own ways as we mature & we make new like-minded friends along the way.

🧞‍♂️ That music still inside... your true purpose... maybe you'd love to be more of service to others, offer something of huge value that could profoundly change lives for the positive... whatever it is... are you keeping company with others hitting those goals?

🎶 I decided after a long windy path of many "this is not for me after all" that I'd like to do my own thing rather than work for someone else, from my own space, something creative, add value to the world or assist others in some way.

🎫 I contracted for a lovely company for a while & met my future business partner at an event who had found an opportunity very much my ideal. I now work for myself, in a zen environment (my home), doing creative things like writing aspects of my story, designing & creating; logos, web-pages, marketing campaigns & social media posts sharing Personal Development wins with the world.

🧲 To be who I really want to be & live the lifestyle of my dreams I first met one person on the path to creating that for himself & then met a whole community of like-minded individuals who love self development at various stages of their journeys.

🔥 Nothing sets your pants on fire like experiencing OFTEN your peers achieving what you too aim for. INSPIRING. To see if you'd like to emulate the characters in our business community visit us here:

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
