Prioritize your life around kind, passionate people!
You are what you eat! We all have heard that saying! Well, guess what?! We are who we surround ourselves by as well.
As human beings, we are unique creatures, and we are creatures of habit! We tend to follow what others around us are doing and follow by their example. If this is the case, why would we want to be surrounded by negative and toxic people? WE WOULDN’T! Unfortunately, we settle and let ourselves, and it causes less productivity, negativity, and the inability to reach our full potential.
I work for a company where one of our core principles and mindset is “surround yourself by successful people". We do not work with everyone and anyone, we work with only the TOP financial advisors in the country. As they say, “iron sharpens iron” and because of this, we are the largest and best organization in the country.
So, the question is, when will you take a step back to see who you are surrounded by? Are they challenging you to be the best? Or are they forcing you to remain complacent and not progress?
The thing is it can be VERY difficult, to be honest with ourselves. Cutting out people who are close “friends” to us, that we have come to realize are not helping us achieve this growth, can be hard. Who are you more loyal too though, yourself or your friends? Is your boss preventing you from reaching your full potential? Your company? I know my last job was, and I decided to DROP it like it’s HOT and find something else to spark a whole new me!
So, take a step back.Write down those who bring you up, and make you great. Those who make you want to be the BEST you. Prioritize who you are surrounded by. Make sure they lift you up.
Be Great. Be passionate. Be Kind.
