Entourage!

Human-beings are defined as “Social creatures”. We like to live within groups, it gives us a feeling of security and it enhances our abilities to share and that consequently creates a sense of happiness and existence.

Civilizations started with the concept of “FAMILY”, no one can live alone, hence surrounding yourself with the right people is the correct way to succeed in life. Sometimes we surround ourselves with the wrong groups, which can be the reason for your failure.

From my book “The book of everything – unexpected journey” I tried to explain what sort of people you must be around to succeed in life, I will elaborate more in this article to explain whom you should select to keep close to you.

There are 5 people you should keep close to you to achieve your life / business and personal goals.

MOTIVATOR: a motivator is someone who believes in you, he or she can get the best out of you by pushing your boundaries and forces you to leave your comfort zone. He or she could be a husband, a wife, a brother, a manager, or a friend. This person willingly uses his or her time to remind you that you are better than what you think you are, he sees your true potential. A motivator is someone who has the 3rd level of conscious – comprehension.

MENTOR: you need this person to lead you to the right pathway. Normally he or she is older than you, a person with experience, with success stories, with logic. He or she shows you how things are done, he is your safety valve.

RIVAL: this person is your benchmark, someone to compete with, someone you look for, he or she is extremely successful in all ways, a raw model. This person always helped me to excel during all the stages of my life, if you failed to find your rival in your workplace then maybe you are in the wrong “bus”.

FRIEND: as they say, “a friend in need is a friend indeed”, you need a good friend, someone whom you trust, someone whom you share with your fears, thoughts, you tell him everything without having a second thought. Unfortunately, this is the most difficult person to find, remember a good book is always a good friend.

FINALLY, YOURSELF: you must have a healthy relationship with yourself, reconcile with yourself on daily basis, look at failures as experience, believe in yourself, be a good friend to yourself. Always remind yourself with positive words and ideas, reward yourself whenever you do something good, love yourself to the maximum, be selfish – if needed.
