Positive Influence

What influences you? Influence comes from a great piece of music, a great film, or book. What are you filling your mind with? Inspiration is all around us, whether good or bad. I choose to fill my ears with positive and inspiring sounds. Beautiful music and cd's from coaches and mentors. We are all being influenced by someone. It is time we search out the individuals we admire and respect to learn from them, to be influenced by them. Ask yourself this, "Who am I around most?" Whoever it is, may or may not be the right influence. We don't want the wrong influences to make our choices for us subconsciously. Those we are around most have a direct effect on our choices. We are never beyond influence. Start making a choice on what kind of influence you are to those around you and what type of influence you are seeking. The key is to seek out those individuals who have achieved what we desire to achieve and model them. I hope this assists you today. I desire to be a good influence on those that are around me physically and here in Internetland.

Assisting Others

Do you go out to connect or do you connect while you're out? That is a question that I have asked myself. Connecting with others and attracting those you want to join you in your endeavor, what ever business you may be in, is about connecting with individuals that you can collaborate with.

Today, I was out watching my son's baseball game and struck up a conversation with one of the mothers on my team. She is smart and always has a smile on her face. She glows and I definitely wanted to share my opportunity with her. I have wanted to connect with her before but haven't had the opportunity to before today. We spoke for a while and she began to confide in me and tell me that they were moving because they could no longer afford their home. Isn't that so common now? How many people do you know that are going through a similar situation?

The reason I share this is because I now have an opportunity to assist her and her family in a way I could not before. I simply asked her a question, "I understand what you are going through. Would you be open to an opportunity to achieve additional income?" "Yes," she said.

She didn't ask what is it, how much does it cost, blah, blah, blah...the objections we sometimes have to overcome. It was a simple, "yes. When can we get together?" We set up the appointment to meet and share the opportunity.

Here's the thing, I am open to receiving people into my life. I am open to assisting others. By assisting others achieve their goals, I in turn receive what I desire.

I love what I do. I love assiting others. I am grateful for all that I have and all that I am receiving. I know where I am going and I know that I am succeeding.

Go out and connect with others.

Go out and Connect

With a couple days of wind and rain. We are back to a beautiful sunny San Diego day. Today is a day to go for a walk and meet people. Go out and connect with those you want to collaborate with. Walk around with a smile. It is the best "ice breaker" when connecting with people.
You never know who it will be that will want to connect and collaborate with you.
