Why is my environment important? Well environment is absolutely everything. You know, a long time ago when we first learned that you’re the average of the five or 10 people that you associate yourself the most with, including your income, including who you’re becoming, including your values and habits, we started surrounding ourselves not just with better people physically, but with better mentors virtually.
It’s really important that you understand that the environment you are creating both physically and internally is going to determine who you are becoming, and therefor what your results are becoming as well. So think about all the different environments that you’re putting yourself in. Number one, your physical environment, your home. How are you treating that environment? Is it perhaps really tidy or really messy? Then of course your environment within your relationships, your environment within your finances.
Sometimes you need to look at all these environments and then start surrounding yourself with both mentors and physical relationships that are going to pull you forward, that are going to get you into action, taking action where you actually want to be. For us, it’s so important that we create environments that inspire us, that always challenge us, that actually want us to become more, to learn more, step out of our comfort zone.
So environment is absolutely everything. So if you don’t know where to start, what I would start is really surround myself with better virtual mentors. That’s what we did at the beginning, we didn’t know where to find people who are more … who’ve actually succeeded. We didn’t have access to people like that, so we started listening, reading, watching, you know all the information, personal and professional development, immersing ourselves, so that we could really start to think like successful people think.
We would surround ourselves with very, very successful mentors, listening to them, and start asking ourselves, “What would this mentor do in this situation?” You get into their head and really know what they would do in a particular situation. If you want to change your results start changing your environments, but also start changing the virtual and the physical people you’re surrounding yourself with. You watch your results as your life and your results transform.
