I heard this quote this morning and I have been reflecting on it all day long. Reflecting on past relationships, new relationships, where my life was vs. now and how TRUE this statement really is!
"You can't soar like an eagle if you are scratching with the chickens." What does this mean exactly? It means you can't move forward in your life if you are surrounding yourself with the wrong people. You can't become your best self if you are not around those that want you to be your best self. It means you WILL become exact replicas of who is in your influence bubble! This could be positive - OR - it could be detrimental. If you are not loving life right now, if you are looking around wondering why you can never get ahead, if your dreams are not coming true for you... look at who you surround yourself with on a daily basis! You attract who you surround yourself with. You attract what is constantly on your mind and what you are obsessed with. Your close relationships - friends, co-workers, lovers, family - ALL impact and serve you in one way or another - both GOOD and BAD! Here are 3 action steps to help you SOAR! 1 - Review your closest relationships and see how they are serving you. How do you feel around them? Are they supporting your life goals and where you want to go? Or are they toxic and life sucking? Be honest here! 2 - Identify which relationships are not serving you and take action TODAY! Don't feel bad about this! Personalities change, goals change and sometimes we must remove our self away from the people that do not align with our current life. This doesn't mean you can't still care or love this person... this means that you are not allowing them in your influence bubble any longer. 3 - Take some personal development time to change your thought patterns. In order to live in a positive, abundant and successful life you must concentrate on developing relationships which are enriching, supportive and empowering! The bottom line is this - if there are people in your life that drain your energy, make you feel badly about yourself or hold you back, then you must take appropriate action, and quickly!
