Surround Yourself With The Company Of Success
“You are the company you keep.”It’s sort of like “you are what you eat.” Today we’re talking about the people that surround you and their impact on your financial life.
Who Are The Company You Keep?
Take a look at your life and think about the company you keep. Think about all the company you keep, including
• Online friends
• Blog communities (like this one)
• Offline relationships
• Personal relationships
• Business associations
• Work relationships
Think about all the people you talk, read, or listen to, and the overall types of company you keep. You may not even have directly communicated with any of these people (such as when you read a blog or forum…), but if you follow what they say, you are keeping company with them. And the kinds of company you keep will have a very strong impact on your financial success; more than you might realise.
Keep The Company You Want To Be
Those of us following men and women like Jamie McIntyre, or programs like the 21st Century Academy, have been introduced to the power of attraction. In this case that power is the power of like attracting like. Applied to your personal associations and building wealth, that translates thusly: keep company with positive and successful people and that is what you will become. You will attract positivity and success to you and into your life. But keep company with negative and unsuccessful people and that is what you will draw to you.
This does not mean that negative people are bad people, just that they are bad for you in terms of success and wealth creation. You need to limit those influences in your life and focus on building an influence of wealth.
We can not entirely avoid negative people, but we can decide what affect we will let those people have on our lives by deciding the role we let them play in ours. Focus on building relationships with people who are strong, motivated, supportive, and focused on the good, and that is the type of person you will become. Choose your company carefully, as when you look back at yourself, you will see that you certainly do become the company you keep.
To Your Continued Financial Success
