Allow Yourself to Succeed

 

If you look around you and the people you surround yourself with, do you feel success. Do you sense this higher energy and desire for achievement? Have you chosen them to share your life or were most of them imposed on you by life?

We are social creature and the tribe we belong to is very important for us. We copy their behaviour, their accent, their ways of thinking. For someone who wants to achieve things in life and succeed, this influence is critical. Because ultimately the person we are is just a blend of our environment, including our entourage, and our values. Now of course it's important to break through those limiting beliefs and even coming from a broken background you can still succeed.

But this is not achieved by surrounding yourself with mediocre individuals. We become the average of the 5 people we hang out the most with. Now pause a second on this and think about these people. Do you see in them your future success? Or are they dragging you in their limiting beliefs and social conditioning? Now obviously we don't choose where we were born, or our family. But if you want to thrive in life and really conquer your dream, you have to be very careful with who you allow yourself to be around. They are going to make you who you are, they are going to define how you think and what you believe is possible for yourself.

The key is this: in every person of your close social circle, you should see a quality, a features, a skill, that you would like to acquire and where this person is at a higher level of.  They don't have to represent the ideal person you want to be, but they must have this one thing that inspires you. On the other hand, people that don't help you, that take more than they give, cut them off. It sounds a little harsh, and it's easier say than done. But growing is saying no to more and more things. Friends, family, loved ones, if they are not helping you in your endeavours in any way, cut them off.

Nobody has never achieved great things alone. You need help, mentors, people to look up to. Self-improvement and books can substitute an entourage to some extent. But if you are really serious about success an accomplishing your goal, you have to make that decision. So what is it gonna be?
