Is Where You Are The Right Place For You?

Successful people attract other successful people. Why do you think that is? Why not the other way around? Successful people are around other successful people because they want

to continue to grow, to expand their social connections,

to continue to ask real questions, to meet other people who are very hungry,

to challenge themselves, and to live well.

Because success is attractive. If you want to better yourself, you must hang out with those who are doing interesting things. Don’t hang out with people who are just happy with what they are doing, who are not interested in growth, who are scared of leaving what they are used to.

Look, success is not what you cannot make. You can, but you have got to be willing to do the work, to challenge yourself. Success is not going to happen in your life if you just continue to do what you have always done. If you want to experience something new in your life, you have got to step out.

When you step out, you will start to attract new things into your life. Success won’t happen if you are not in the right place.

What is the right place? The right place is where you are free to challenge yourself.

The right place is where growth is possible. It is where you are free to challenge the status quo, where people are willing to help you when you need help.

The right place is where people are friendly, real friendly. The right place is where you are safe to talk about what you are going through in your life, where you can seek help, without the fear of rejection from colleagues.

The right place has problems, but they know how to deal with them.

That is why the right place is where people want to be, want to work. If you want to be successful, where you are matters.

If where you are is not doing it, is not supporting you, if you are just there, just killing time, you had better leave. If you stay, nothing is going to happen.

The question is, ‘Is where you are the right place for you? If you are not feeling it, ‘What are you doing to make your life better?

It is because of them I’m doing it myself

When people say “no” to you, don’t take it personal. You should be happy that someone said no to your request. Don’t take it personal. View it through your positive lens, not through your negative lens.

It hurts to view rejection through a positive lens. But if you can do it, you will come back smarter, happier, healthier, and wealthier. Yes, wealthier, because the first rejection gave you enough time to prepare for your next move.

Sometimes when people say no to us, they don’t mean it in a bad way. They are telling you to go home and prepare before you come back. If you do, it is a win-win business. I know people say no to us for other reasons. This place is to small to run through the entire list. Next time.

Next time when someone says no to your request, don’t cry about it. Go home and prepare for a stronger comeback. Think about what went wrong the first time. Think about what you are going to do differently this time. Try not to repeat the same process. If you do it, you will get the same results.

It hurts to view rejection through a positive lens. But if you can do it, you will come back smarter, happier, healthier, and wealthier.

If you have something in mind that you have been dancing around, rejection time is the perfect time to jump on and act on it. For example, if you have been planning for years to start your own business, rejection time is the right time to work on your plan. If you don’t know what to do, you can get valuable information from your local business centers. If you have been planning to get back to school, rejection time is the right time to enroll that course. Use your time wisely. This is not the time to waste time. This is the time to get stuff done. This is the time to prove to yourself that you can get things done. Albert Einstein famously said, “I am thankful for all of those who said NO to me. It’s because of them I’m doing it myself.”

You need people to succeed, but when rejected, you can do it yourself.

Yes, you can!
