Can your friends help you become successful? - By: Andrea Scott

Can your friends affect your success? Does it matter if some of your friends are negative and critical? Are your friends on a similar path as you, determine to create a successful business? Or, do they criticize your vision of creating financial freedom?

Connecting with positive, like-minded people is a pivotal factor. It can be challenging to find encouraging, upbeat people but it is possible.

In March I attended my company's business convention. I was blown away! It was wonderful to be surrounded by so many upbeat, people.

I was excited to hang out with people with a similar mindset - people who want to create wealth and make a difference in the world. The energy was phenomenal! I was charged. Nothing could stop me. That's the awesome energy generated by positive people.

So, with whom do you associate? Ask yourself some tough questions about your friends. You are definitely influenced by the company you keep. If you want to experience success in your life then objectively assess the quality of your friends.

Get away to a quiet place. List your 10 closest friends. Are they critical, skeptical people who deliberately denigrate the wealthy? Or, do they praise the actions of the affluent?

Are your friends creative problem solvers? How do they respond to personal challenges?

What is their perception of the current economic challenges? Do they complain and worry? Or, do they seek to embrace the great opportunities that are emerging?

Are they even aware that we are on the verge of the greatest transfer of wealth the world has ever experienced?

How do you feel when you are with them? Are you energized? Or, do you drained and depressed?

Once you evaluate your friends, then determine how much contact you want to maintain. Will the relationship enhance your goal of becoming successful, however you define success?

You may choose to spend less time with some. With others, you may choose to end the friendship. It's time to move on. It may feel difficult and seem hard-hearted, but by terminating a friendship, you are creating the space for a better relationship to develop.

So how do you find like-minded, positive people? Be positive yourself. Thank God.

Appreciate the positive people in your life. Nurture them. Be the person you would like to have as a friend. Check out online forums, like Meetup or the Science of Getting Rich.

If you are involved with a network marketing company, attend your company's events. Ask God to direct positive people into your path.

Visualize the successful person that you are becoming - dynamic entrepreneur. Take the limits off. Enjoy the process. Make an indelible difference in your world!!
