So true, growth comes from being surrounded by people better than you. A dear friend holds the maxim, "you are the average of the 5 people you spend time with." From time to time, trade up. To stagnate in the lower left quadrant means you are stale and will be viewed as "past your use by date." BTW, I love 2 x 2 matrices to pick apart a gordian knot of issues.
