Are You Paying Attention To The People Around You?

‘No one succeeds alone and no one fails alone. Pay attention to the people around you.’– Gary Keller

If you want to know what is going on around you, you must pay attention to the people around you. Do not forget yourself.

Just because people are not talking to you does not mean that everything is okay. Do not wait for them to come to you. If you are really interested in what is going on around you, you must get up and meet your people where they are.

They are human beings. Pay attention to what is going on with them. Pay attention to what they are not telling you. That is more important than what they are telling you.

If you are around people who don’t have the courage to tell you what you need to hear, you are not with the right people.

They are not helping you by not telling you what you need to hear. It is important to be around great people, people who are with you to help you get better, not to drag you down.

To go up, you need the right people in your life. To go down, you need the wrong people in your life. And the wrong people are everywhere. You have got to pay attention to the people around you.

They matter. They know you. They can help you get better, achieve success, and they can also take you down.

Life is more fun when you are with the right people. Difficult things are easier to manage when you are working with the right people, when your team members are doing the real work.

Life is better when you have trusted people around you. Trusted people are givers, not takers. They are with you to help you get better, not to drag you down.

When you are with them, you don’t want the day to end. You just want to keep going. You just want to keep working. And you don’t want them to go home.

Trusted people are there for you when you need them, when things are tough. They are not with you to exploit you, but to nurture you. To help you get to your next level.

If the people around you are not supporting your dreams, then you have got a lot of work to do. One of the best ways to deal with them is to commit yourself to your dreams. Do not disrespect them, but do not let them talk you out of your dreams.

If you do, you are going to be the biggest loser. And they are going to be the biggest winners. Do not let that happen. Don’t!
