The following familiar story, as written below, comes from the website: DontFeedTheWolf.com
“One winter’s evening whilst gathered round a blazing camp fire, an old Sioux Indian chief told his grandson about the inner struggle that goes on inside people.
‘You see’ said the old man, ‘this inner struggle is like two wolves fighting each other. One is evil, full of anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, deceit, false pride, superiority, and ego.’
‘The other one,’ he continued, poking the fire with a stick so that the fire crackled, sending the flames clawing at the night sky, ‘is good, full of joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.’
For a few minutes his grandson pondered his grandfather’s words and then asked, ‘So which wolf wins, grandfather?’
‘Well’, said the wise old chief, his lined face breaking into a wry smile, ‘The one you feed!’”
So, in other words, if you surround yourself with positivity, you will live with more positivity. If you surround yourself with negativity, you will find yourself living with more negativity.
There is a wonderful discussion of this very concept in a video done by the publisher of Success Magazine, Darren Hardy.

I challenge you to seek out those who set a great example — who inspire you with their positivity, their motivation, their initiative, and their greatness. Surround yourself with people who constantly push the bar a little bit higher, and you will find yourself emulating them and following their lead. You will become more positive as a result, and you will experience more successes than disappointments.
Seek out the positive! Be the positive…Feed the “good” wolf inside of you!
I wish you the best!
