A good friend of mine inspired me to add a heap more rawness to my blogs; he is a big fan of “the truth” and feels that keeping it real and personal keeps it much more interesting and insightful…
So, from now on – ” no holds barred” warts and all.
The theme of today’s post is the importance of the people you spend time with and the impact of this on your personal wellbeing.
Try this. Think carefully about who you want to and how you want to be. Then look at all the people you spend time with at home, at work, when you are out socialising. How many of them represent the direction you want to head in?
I constantly find this a struggle and because I wear so many hats, if I am honest, it would be less than 5%.
What is the problem with this? Well, you are much less likely to be inspired, interested and motivated. Even gone out and felt a bit flat or empty with the conversation? Go into the work environment and get tired very quickly.
You are misaligned. If you were aligned you would find a real sense of purpose and be happy in the moment you are in, not looking for the next, better moment!
It becomes particularly if you are “trapped” in a 9 to 5 job when you have mentally decided that you are destined for something different; your mind is somewhere else and you have a heart conflict which can be very tough.
What to do about it.
- The first is awareness. Know what you are about, where you are heading.
- Next actively build relationships with people who are on or ahead of you on a similar path
- Finally, don’t be afraid to cull or back off from relationships that are misaligned; don’t fall for the trap of legacy reasons
