CLICK HERE to see who I surround myself with – (will open in a new window)

I know NOW growing up I had some real dead beats that were in my circle of influence whom I listened to daily and made bad decisions from. But as I got older, I got the fact that I am responsible for my actions that I take – and the people whom I surround myself with, so…

Who is Inspiring You?

So who are you “listening to” from your circle of influence?

Your circle of influence is usually people who are in your life directly and indirectly, and who you listen to willingly or not. They are your family members and friends. Work colleagues if you are in a job. The shop assistant or green grocer you frequent regularly. Or it could be the every 8 week hairdresser visit.

Have you ever really thought about some of the decisions you made – good or bad? Was it your idea, or that of someone close to you?

These people in your circle could be having a huge profound effect on you – again good or bad – whether you realise it or not. How do you feel after you speak to these people who are nearest and dearest to you? Are you left feeling great after a talk to your brother or mother-in-law – or do you leave the conversation feeling like “How on earth did I continue listening to that garbage, why did I buy into all that negative talk?”

Identifying The Good & The Bad

It’s so important to identify who is close to you – it can be family or not – and figure out what impact they have on you. Are they supportive of your “out of the box” ideas and decisions, or do they quash or belittle any new found thought you bring to what could be huge changes in your future?

When you do identify these people – you may need to cut them from your circle of influence all together.

But how do you do that if it is family? Or a friend you have known for many years?

An absolute must is learning how to put parameters on these conversations and influences. Nobody says you can’t “Love from a Distance” and sometimes, just that needs to be done for yourself to move forward positively!

Definitely become conscious of who you are allowing into your life – you want to be left feeling good and positive after conversing with all people you speak with. If they choose to speak constant negative talk about general “stuff” well, at the end of the day, it’s your choice to be a part of it or not.

To know your Circle of Influence are positive, like-minded individuals who totally support your views and more importantly, really listen to them, is paramount.
