I don't even watch the news regularly but somehow, the stories of the "girls gone wild" in Hollywood keeps coming across my radar. What's up with that?
It only makes me think of the saying I've been hearing forever that says
"You're only as good as the people you associate with".
It's obviously very true in life...as we've been *exposed* ad nauseum these past few months to their wild antics, it's obvious that their relationship with each other has had an influence on their behavior.
The same can be said for other areas of your life of course:
If you want to be successful, hang out with successful people.
If you're raising capital for your business, hang out where the investors are.
If you're looking for TEAM and/or experts, hang out where your industry hangs out.
I like to mix it up to make sure my "networking" experiences are meaningful.
As my agendas for my different projects evolve, I'm always evaluating who's in my "circle of influence" to make sure that the connections are mutually beneficial.
There are certain groups I have outgrown, or my focus has shifted in my business ---- it's good to be aware of those shifts and to respond accordingly with a new emphasis on where you'll be spending your time.
This happened naturally when I got married 3 years ago. Hanging out with my die-hard single friends no longer supported me and my growth so I made some shifts in my relationships.
The same shifts happen in our businesses as our agendas change but often we're not always aware of when it's time to move on.
To your success!
