Unexpected change that seems to come out of the blue is an integral part of life. Small crises as well as bigger ones appear out of nowhere, and we're faced with a choice: wait it out until the storm is over or take action. The problem is that waiting it out isn't always the best strategy, because even when one sudden change is finally over the next one is usually on the way. A lot of people spend their whole life "waiting it out". 
 
 In this podcast I share two things which are critical to successfully maneuvering through any change. These two techniques foster a growth mindset and help you thrive even when faced with daunting challenges and times of uncertainty. After all, after the crisis is before the crisis.

“You are the average of the five people you choose to associate with the most.”

One of the key factors in boosting overall happiness is fostering strong, healthy relationships. I’m talking about the network of people in your life. By network I don’t mean the number of virtual cyber friends – the vast majority you have never met before. This is not an inventory of the people you know. I’m talking about people who are good for you. They believe in you. They have your back. They challenge you because they want the best for you. People you can learn something from.

You can’t surround yourself with negative people and expect to have a positive life. Be intentional about how and with whom you spend your time.

Why is this so important? A large part of setting yourself up for success is exposing yourself to people whom you deem to be successful. So, if you aren’t intentional about the people you spend your time with, you won’t be able to gain the continuous personal improvement that you’re looking for.

This podcast share the five types of people psychologists recommend you have in your life. These five types are critical to your personal and professional growth and development and ultimately to you reaching your goals = success in your life.
