Success is made up of hard work, commitment and passion but perhaps one of the most crucial factors to take into account is who we choose to surround ourselves with. As the old adage goes, 'you are who you hang out with' and the people we invite into our world on a daily basis can impact the way we think, feel and act.
There are five types of people that you must surround yourself with if you want to successful:
The Inspired
The inspired people are those who create the urge or ability for you to do something within your life. These are the people who create a feeling of awe within you and create a state of mind that is empowering as opposed to disempowering.
The inspired are those who spark a curiosity within your heart and mind and cause you to search for inspiration elsewhere as well. They breed n environment of inspiration which leads to high quality results in life.
The Passionate
The passionate people are those who express their intensity through the medium of life. They immerse themselves in what they become deeply engaged in and find themselves in flow.
These are the people who, like the inspired individuals, infect you with their ability to become passionate. They cause you to reflect on your own levels of passion and guide you curiously to a place where you can be just as passionate as them.
Their passion is obvious and spills out of them. They have that glitter in their eye and love in their heart.
The Motivated
The motivated people are those who get things done. They very rarely struggle with accomplishing tasks because they have a strong vision and why for their life.
The reason why the motivated people are so critical in your life is because they show you how to become a person who is intrinsically motivated as opposed to extrinsically motivated. In other words, they show you how to cultivate motivation from within as opposed to having your motivation being dictated by the environment.
These people work hard on their journey and set the example for how hard you must work on your own craft and life. They show you how to set a schedule, focus on the important things, knock out one task after another, so on and so forth.
The Grateful
The grateful people are those who live within the present moment and express their full gratitude for what they have and the circumstance that they find themselves in.
These individuals allow you to fully relax in their presence and carry with them a calm energy that becomes infectious. You are attracted to these people because of how present and attentive they are.
These people allow you to see the positives as opposed to the negatives. They look at the glass fully and drink deeply from it. They take the time to look at the trees, flowers, breathe in the air, and experience all of the sensory inputs that are available to them in the immediate environment. They are great practitioners of mindfulness.
The Open Minded
The open minded people are those who expose you to new ideas, people, places, experiences, so on and so forth. They expose a whole new world to you and your perspective becomes wiser as a result.
These are the people who will give you that nudge to break free of your comfort zone into things that you previously deemed uncomfortable. They essentially expand your comfort zone for you through the process of just being around them.
The fastest way in order for you to accelerate your success is simply choosing the right people to hang around with. By spending time with these types of people, you begin to pick up on their ways of thinking, actions, habits, so on and so forth. This will give you a new perspective and will start the process of momentum for you to do the very same thing within your own character.
