About This Course
In this lesson we are going to look at first impressions when meeting someone, but from a different perspective. I recently finished the book Millionaire Success Habits by Dean Graziosi and in it he talks about the people we surround ourselves with . . . in particular he looks at two types – battery chargers and battery drainers.
So what does this have to do with first impressions? In a previous podcast I talked about how to make a great first impression when meeting someone. . . you may recall that being positive and upbeat were a couple key things to be aware of.
Have you thought about how the person you meet projects either positive or negative vibs? For example, you ask someone “How’s your day going?” and the person answers “I am having a tough day . . . I can’t wait til it is over. . . I can’t wait til the weekend.” What kind of person do you think this projects? Chances are, a battery drainer.
In contrast you ask some the same question and they respond, “fantastic, awesome, amazing, I am living the dream.” You can see this person will most likely be a battery charger. Someone you would like to be around and whose energy is a positive in your life.
I can’t put it any simpler, if you want success, surround yourself with battery chargers, not battery drainers!
We all have battery drainers in our life, some who may be close friends, colleagues or family. While we can’t push away all battery drainers, you can deliberately surround yourself with battery charges. The drainers will eventually drop out of your circle by themselves once they realize they don’t fit in.
Use this tip to identify positive people and build your inner circle with them. Make it a habit to grow your group deliberately with successful positive people. How do you find these people? Read books on success, listen to podcasts, go where successful people are likely to be – such as at meetup groups, masterminds etc . . . or perhaps look into getting a business coach.
To recap, seek battery chargers, not drainers and start surrounding yourself with these positive people.
