This morning, I enjoyed a conversation with a business associate / friend. We are involved in the same field, and enjoy the opportunity to share the thoughts that are running around our brains and our spheres of influence.
Tom is involved in some pretty exciting things right now and I believe in his vision. As I listened to him speak, I immediately thought of ways in which I could help him accomplish his goals. More specifically, I thought about the people I know that he could possibly leverage to move his vision forward.
Flood of Ideas
As we discussed his project, he shared many of the different ideas that he is considering. An interesting thing happened to me while I was listening to him and sharing my thoughts around his ideas. My own ideas, related to other projects began to pop into my mind and take on different shapes. The things that I was thinking about on his behalf, were really not related to my projects, at least I would have never considered it that way, but as we spoke, I began to see how the thoughts I was having could form around the things I am working on.
This new vantage point of thinking about something completely different, began to shed light on some of the walls that I am facing in other areas. I saw things that I had not seen before. The view was amazing, and it really energized me.
What Are You Attracting
Some might see Tom and I as competitors. We see each other as virtual board members. We trust each other enough to know that our interest in helping each other is greater than our interest in profiting off of each other.
Both of us are very creative, innovative, motivative and supportive. We like to help. We spent the majority of the call talking about Tom's project, but the call did not end without him asking me – "how can I help you?" I never had to push that, and he did not push for my help. It is just something that we both do naturally, and so we enjoy spending time together.
Some of us spend a lot of time thinking about the Law of Attraction. We think that if we want something bad enough, we can think about it, and then we will manifest it. I propose a new twist on that thought. I don't think we attract what we want, I think we attract who we are, and that is much more powerful.
What kind of people are you associating with?
Do they support and inspire you?
What are you doing to help them?
You get to choose every day how you show up. You can be an energy booster, or an energy drain. I believe that the more you work at being your best, the more you will attract others who are working to be their best. The kind of people you hang around with will seriously determine the joy you feel in life. If you want great people in your life, be a great person.
