Your Success Depends on Who You Spend Time With (DW329)

Have you ever been a part of a group and thought, "Oh, where are my people? This isn't the right fit," or you've had a glimpse into what it's like to be around the ideal people? 

Then you're going to want to listen to this episode because you'll discover how your success depends on who you spend time with. 

Our host, Diane Rolston, shares three conversations from one week that all highlighted the same challenge high achievers face: finding their tribe of like-minded people who inspire rather than drain.

Listen to learn these key takeaways:

  • Why success doesn't happen in isolation and how the wrong people can either fuel you or drain you, move you up or move you down
  • The difference between being "too much" in the wrong room versus being "right on track" in the right room with like-minded people
  • How being around people at different levels can either inspire you to reach higher or make you complacent as the "big fish in a small pond"
  • Diane's soccer story about how being on the wrong team made her a worse player, illustrating how your environment directly impacts your performance
  • The emotional impact of shrinking versus rising 
  • Jim Rohn's principle that "You're the average of the five people you spend the most time with," and why this matters for your future success
  • How to audit your current five people and decide if they reflect who you want to become
  • Diane's upcoming high-level mastermind for like-minded women who want to be bolder, braver, and reach their goals with the right support system
