You Are The Average Of The Five People You Spend The Most Time With

Who do you spend your time with - online and offline? People who cheer you on, motivate you, and support you - or people who tell you that you're wasting your time, it's not possible, you will fail? Snide comments and put-downs from non-entrepreneurial friends and family can have a devastating impact on your ambitions and ultimately, your success.

So choose who to spend your time with. Hang out on WA, where you will not only learn and be able to build your business, but be surrounded by people doing the same. Spend less time with those who want to bring you down. I know it's difficult when some of the people who talk you down are family or close friends, and I'm not suggesting you cut them out of your life completely - just spend less time with them, choose how much information to share about your business ambitions, and steer the conversation onto different subjects.

The choice of who you surround yourself with will have a massive impact on whether you succeed or fail.
