Why we all need THIS...
A couple days ago, I sent out an email sharing some insight on getting through the current economic climate.
And in that email, I shared something that has helped me through the process of building and running businesses during times like these.
And that is this:
Before I get into it, I just want to say, I’m not a financial advisor nor do I claim to be. You should always seek the advice of someone trained in that area.
However, I have built and run a number of successful businesses as well as managed my own money during times of economic turmoil like what we’re experiencing today.
And there are a few things I’ve learned along the way. Today, I want to talk about one of those things: why who you listen to matters.
It isn’t rocket science that the people we spend time with, we end up becoming more like. And the messages we listen to end up impacting our thoughts.
And so I’ve found that during times like these, you really want to be evaluating what type of people you’re spending time around and what type of messages you’re allowing into your mind.
Are you being fed messages that tell you you’re doomed, hopeless, and that your business has no chance of surviving – let alone thriving – now or into the future?
Or are you being fed messages that you are fully resourced and capable of bringing forward whatever it is you set your mind to? Messages that tell you the conditions and circumstances around you don’t define your value…
Honestly, right now is a good time to re-evaluate who you’re spending time around and what you’re spending time listening to.
One of the best decisions I ever made was getting a mentor.
I remember being in my early 20’s. I had just started my cleaning business, I was struggling to make ends meet, it was right in the middle of an economic downturn, and here I was, living in a home with 5 other guys – not because I wanted to, but because that’s all I could afford.
And then I met Patrick Hayes, my first mentor.
To be honest, things didn’t change right away. It wasn’t like as soon as I met him, a switch flipped.
But I can say there was immediate comfort in just knowing that someone believed in me; someone who I looked up to. And it was that very someone who I could borrow that belief from.
It was after consistently spending time being poured into by Patrick and applying what he’d taught me that I started to see changes.
I want to encourage you. If you don’t have a mentor, I challenge you to find one.
It doesn’t have to be me. Just find someone from whom you can borrow belief in yourself. And who has been where you are and has gone where you want to go.
You won’t understand the impact of having a mentor until you’ve had one.
Because I’m so passionate about mentorship, I want to invite you to my next 6-Figure Mentorship call.
I’m hosting this call on Saturday, June 18th at 8am (ET). It’s free, it’s 2 hours long, and all are welcome. You don’t even have to register for it.
PLUS, I’m giving a 25% off coupon on the entire Empowered Living Store to everyone who joins this call LIVE!
I’d love the opportunity to be your thinking partner, because I know how crucial having one has been for me (and can be for you too).
That’s why I’m also hosting time for Q&A after the teaching, so I can speak into any questions you may have.
I hope to see you there!

And that is this:
- Who you listen to matters
- Who you surround yourself with matters
- And how you manage your emotions matters
