“The Koi fish grows in proportion to its
environment. If you keep it in a pail of water,
it grows only 2 inches. But if you let loose in
the wild it can grow up to 2 feet,” Dr. Qubein
explained. So are you like the Koi fish that has
been kept in a pail? Is your environment and
social network stifling your growth?
If you believe this to be so, then Dr. Qubein has a suggestion for you, “Make a list of the 10 people you spend the most time with and your top 5 goals and top 5 values. Compare the lists. Are the people you spend the most time with compatible with your values and goals? If not, you might be held back by this association.”
You need to spend more time with positive people and in a positive environment. In the weight loss world, study after study have shown that when you spend time with others who have the same goals as you, and who are making progress towards these goals, that you too will have greater success.
To help you attract the right people and positive support into your social network, here is the Ultimate Guide to Finding Good People in Your Life:
Step 1) Identify what you value in people.
Step 2) Identify where this type of person spends time.
Step 3) Go there.
Whether it is a church, gym, beach, dance lessons, bootcamp fitness class, Chamber of Commerce meeting, local lectures, weekend seminars, weekly group meetings, or a positive Internet forum, you don’t meet good people by watching TV…but good people ARE out there. Go forth and find them.
Let this quote give you some inspiration:
“When you take action, particularly bold action, the boundaries of what you believe to be possible (your belief system) expand. Which, in turn, gives you the capacity to consider new ideas, new possibilities, and new concepts that you previously thought to be impossible.” – Robert Ringer
Live and lead by example. Attract the right people into your life, both in the ‘real-world’ and on the Internet. Take full responsibility for your social network.
After all, you are responsible for your results in all areas of life. When you accept your results without casting blame and you learn from your mistakes so as to not make the same mistakes again, only then will you achieve what you want and have the right people in your life. That is how you must live and that is why you will succeed.
If what you are doing now is not working, then you must change. Don’t rely on doing “normal” things to get extraordinary results, because it doesn’t work that way. Normal and average behaviors only get you average results, and those just aren’t very good these days.
Live by example and stay strong.
