Podcast Mini - Who Do You Surround Yourself With?

Another Mini-Episode to start your day off right - We've all heard people who like to grow and succeed talk about - you are the 5 people you surround yourself with the most. Let's talk about that briefly...

Note: I've been having trouble with my software for YouTube cutting off the beginning, so don't mind my nonsensical trembling at the beginning of each episode :). Yeah, these MINI's are coming from my YouTube channel...

Episode Transcription:

Hey everyone, welcome to another episode today. I want to ask you a question to take with you for the day, We all want to accomplish more, whether it be in business, personal life, whatever, maybe, maybe a combination, I find that a lot. Um and I'm sure we've all heard the phrase that goes something like we are the equivalent of the five people we hang out with the most. And you know, if you've read any business books or anything or any entrepreneurial books that people are very big on the network, they hang out with, the more successful the person, the more they credit the network that they hang out with. That's why you see a lot of groups that meet every week that are entrepreneurs. When I lived in Thailand, I was able to find groups on facebook and online that would meet weekly, That was, that was a bunch of digital nomads that were starting their own business over there and stuff and they have that everywhere. So I want you to think about that, Who are you hanging out with? And I'm not saying that to drop old friends, but we all change, right? I have old friends that I still hang out with, but I don't maybe network with as much because their content in their life, which is great. Um and I still love them, we're just different people and I'm not content. I'm always growing so I think we should all look internally and say, who is it that I could hang out with, maybe weekly, that will push me forward and then I can push forward find a networking group. So what I want you to focus on is think about what can you do in the next month or two to start building your personal network and start expanding that and maybe maybe get involved in monthly meetings or weekly meetings or biweekly meetings. However, that may go to keep you pushing your dream forward while you're helping other people push. There's what I've noticed when I'm networking and now I'm in Arizona, what I've noticed is I meet people out that have that are very similar to me and I get their information and I'm putting together like a mastermind group that can meet once every other week and we'll all get together and share our story and we can all help each other. The great thing about groups like this is not only did they push you to be your best and you push them and everyone pushes each other so everyone grows exponentially, but you have all of this, it's like a mind meld in one room because people, you've been through stuff that I haven't been through, I've been through stuff that you haven't been through and we can educate each other on that information. So it's always a great idea to have a great network if you want to, if you want to grow if you want to get outside your comfort zone, whatever it is that you want to do if you want to grow in life, it's great to have a network of people that have the same aspirations as you. It will only help in the long run. And again, the most successful people swear by having a group of people that they can talk to, that they've met and have the same aspirations. Everyone will move up together. So give it a shot again. What are the things you can do in the next month or two to start building and growing your personal network? To help you and help them hope you have a great day.
