Wealth building strategies: Proximity
Most people don’t realize I dropped out of college at 21.
At the time, I couldn’t put my finger on it, but the environment simply wasn’t for me.
Shortly after, I started a real estate venture to gain real-world experience.
I joined an office where I was surrounded by business owners who were earning multiple six-figure incomes, investing in real estate, and creating multiple streams of income.
If it wasn’t for the change in environment and surrounding myself with the right people, I wouldn’t be where I am today.
Proximity is power.
The most
important decision you’ll make in life is who you spend time with because that is who you will become.
I challenge you to raise your standards. Join a peer group that plays the game at a higher level than you. If you want to fast-track your success, you need to spend time with those who are already on the same path.
Personally, these are a few spaces I recommend so you can be in the room where growth is happening:
In-person Meet Ups. Network in person through MeetUp. There are people in your backyard who are on the same journey as you. Some of my closest friends I met at meetups. Attend a few meetings until you find the right group for you.
Conferences: I’ve invested more than $100,000 in conferences and the investment has returned tenfold. Every time I attend a conference, I gain valuable knowledge and meet someone who changes my life. Tony Robbins is having one in the fall that might interest you.
No matter which route you choose, you want to surround yourself with people who think differently. It’s why we’re passionate about our forward-thinking community The ROI Inner Circle.
