Your Network Determines Your Net Worth

There is an old adage that goes, "Your network determines your net worth." Basically this means the more people you associate with the more potential you have towards developing the wealth you want to attain. However, I would like to add this: Your network needs to be made up of people who will assist you towards reaching your financial and personal goals, and not bring you down away from them.
 
Take stock of the 5 people you spend the most amount of time with on a weekly basis. Are their current financial situations where you would like to see yourself? Many times when people do this exercise they find out that they tend to hang around the people who may be the reason for them not at the level of success they want to be at. If this is what you have found, you many need to change up who you focus most of your time and attention on.


 
So where do you go to meet these new people? 
 
Depending on the route you are taking to achieve success (whether through Business, Real Estate, Stock, etc.), there are many different clubs and meet ups that run regular events of meetings. These are the perfect opportunity to meet new people who will support you towards your goals.
 
So, instead of going out every night to a local pub with your buddies, take a time to attend an event that will allow you to meet new people, hand out your cards, and grow your business.
 
As your circle of influence starts to change, you will notice a shift in your personal success. As well you may even notice a shift in your overall attitude as well, as those who are supporting you will tend to make you happier, than if you spend it with people who just complain. SO, order your business cards, put on some nice clothes and get out there and network!
