What
are your influences? It's a question that is usually asked of singers,
musicians, and artists as a way of determining what that person is most likely
to produce. The same can be said of you and me. How we spend our time, what we
spend our time on, who we spend it with, and why we spend it there are great
indicators or predictors of what WE are most likely to produce. Today is a good
day to ask yourself these five key questions.
1.
What and who are the influencers in
your life?
2.
What sources of information are you
allowing in?
3.
Who are you listening to?
4.
How are they shaping you?
5.
Are you even aware of it?
Take
an honest and open look at your results. Can you say with confidence that your
key influences or influencers are the best they can possibly be? Are you likely
to produce the results you're looking for if these same influences remain in
place? What needs to change? Who needs to change? When will you commit to
making those changes?
To
truly be a person of great influence, we must surround ourselves with truly
great influences. As the old saying goes: What goes down in the well comes up
in the bucket. What's coming up in yours?
