Do your friends have an impact on the success of your online business? - By: Andrea Scott

What impact do your friends have on the success of your online business? Do the negative and critical people in your life affect you adversely? Are your friends on a similar path, seeking to create a successful business? Or do they make fun of you for seeking to create financial freedom for your family?

I believed that I could still build a successful online business if I only had contact with positive people on the phone. I know that it can be challenging to find encouraging, upbeat people but it is possible to do so. After all, I considered myself to be quite a positive person because I focussed on the glass being half-full rather than half-empty.

Recently, I attended my company's business convention. I was blown away! It was wonderful to be surrounded by so many upbeat, encouraging people. It was invigorating to hang out with people of similar mindset - people who are committed to creating wealth to make a difference in the world.

The energy was phenomenal! I was charged. Nothing could stop me from achieving my goals. That's the awesome power of the energy generated by positive people.

So, with whom do you associate? Ask yourself some tough questions about your friends. For you are definitely influenced by the company you keep. If you want to experience success in your business, 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 the challenges they experience? What is your friends' perception of the current economic recession? Do they complain and worry? Or, do they endeavour to embrace the great opportunities that are emerging? Are they even aware that we are on the verge of a massive transfer of wealth?

How do you feel when you hang out with them? Do you feel energized and excited? Or, do you feel exhausted and despondent?

Once you evaluate your friends, you will need to determine how much contact you want to maintain with them. Will the relationship enhance your goal of creating a successful business?

With some people you may choose to spend less time. For others, you may choose to end the friendship as you realize that it's time to move on. By ending a friendship, you create the space for a better relationship to develop.

So how do you find like-minded, positive people? Be positive yourself. Thank God for the positive people who are 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. Attend your company's events. Ask God to bring motivated, upbeat people into your life.

Visualize the successful online business that you are creating. Envision yourself as a successful, powerful online entrepreneur who attracts upbeat, passionate people into your life. You make a difference in your world.
