Definitely. This works not just with money but with any growth area like fitness, relationships, time management, etc.

Over the past few months, I've been spending more time with millionaires, both in person and on the phone. I realized that things that seem big to me are matter of course for them. This helps raise my standards by osmosis. One of them even asked me, "Why are you thinking so small?" That got to me because I'd thought I was thinking fairly big, but to the other person it was small by comparison.
