With whom do you associate with?

July 24, 2008 by Michelle

The people you associate with have a lot to do with your results in life, believe it or not.

A good friend of mine, millionaire entrepreneur and adventurer Nik Halik has recently written a book, The Thrillionaire and the other day I read an article where he was asked what the best advice his parents had given him. He responded with, “You are whom you associate with”.

Interesting. But how does that relate to losing weight?

It relates a LOT, in fact! Just think about it for a minute. When you have told people that you want to lose weight, do they respond positively or negatively? If they were to respond negatively and to say something like, “You’ll never do it!” or something like that, how confident do you think you will feel. What about if they are positive and encouraging? What if they’re in the same situation as you, and decide that they want to lose weight too, right alongside you? Great!

To succeed in any area in life, it’s worth hanging around those who are already a success, or those who are well on the way there – that will give you the motivation to continue and hopefully change your mindset.

That’s why online communities such as the Fit Yummy Mummy’s ClubFYM is such a great idea. If you’re a woman like me, join the club and read about all of the women posting their success. Also look at the support and encouragement these women are giving other members. It’s great to see!

If you’re female then you should join ClubFYM today. It’s free and you will get some great tips and ideas on how to lose weight the right way!
