“Success attracts success and the more it attracts, the stronger and more powerful its force” _ Warren Veenman and Sally Eichhorst (Authors of Unleash Your Full Potential)
We have all at some point of our lives been told our choice of friends and people we surround ourselves with have an impact on who we will become, because it is natural that people who are around each other a lot are likely to have some influence on one another.
Every day presents a new learning opportunity for us and what we choose to learn depends on what kind of attitude we approach the day with and who we choose to learn from, and the people we learn the most from; are often the people we talk to and see every day which is what makes the choice of people we surround ourselves with very important on our path to success.
It is our responsibility to ensure that we play a leadership role in the lives of those around us, successful leadership goes both ways, for you to be a good leader then you have to be willing to be lead yourself because one can never know it all and there is always something new you can learn from another person.
For us to be successful at anything we do, we must surround ourselves with people that also want to be successful, people that have what we want to have, people that want what we want, people that believe they have been put on this earth for a greater purpose and are always looking for ways to fulfil that purpose. This is important because those are the kind of people who will see your mistakes, your strengths, your weaknesses and you will also be able to see theirs and be able to learn from their mistakes, draw from their strengths and help them overcome their fears and weaknesses while they do the same for you because they understand exactly what it is like to want to be a success as much as you do.
We need to think about all our successes in life, past and present in order to create future successful ventures and we need to associate ourselves with successful circumstances with every chance we get, whether it is through the books we read, the kind of events we attend or the people we choose to surround ourselves with and celebrate every successful story we hear or read about no matter how small others may perceive it. This will help us to have an attitude of possibilities that will drive us to do better and inspire others the same way we are inspired by those we look up to.
Always remember that when visions are aligned, probabilities of all those visions becoming a reality increases which will create an even bigger vision than the one that you had imagined to begin with, let us be careful about who and what we invite into our space because it will have a direct impact on what we become.
Keeping it real with
