Circle of Influence
How to do you exert your influence on people around you? And what kind of influence do you have on them?When I first started studying the
Law of Attraction
, I was very excited about it. I constantly wanted to talk about it. For some reason this offended a few people I know. I think it went against their beliefs. Anybody who came to visit me, I would show them the DVD of The Secret . This is a movie about the workings of law of attraction. However I found out that there is nothing that could convince some people that there exists such a mighty law that would literally turn around their lives. If they are not ready for it, then they will probably not understand it.
I was disappointed that some people are missing out on such a wonderful phenomenon. Actually they are not missing out on it as the law of attraction is always working whether they believe it or not. Unconsciously they are attracting what they wanted or not wanted in their lives and then crediting it to luck or chance.
Anyway what I learned later was that sometimes it is better to demonstrate something rather then to preach about it. Instead of talking the talk, I started walking the walk. This was much more effective and people were influenced by my experience. They saw a change in me; they could feel that I was more confident, stronger, happy, loving and calm. They would ask me about it and then I would explain to them how changing your
thoughts
and controlling your mind can give such wonderful results. It was much easier to make them understand this way. From then on I let my actions do most of the talking. However I still wanted to talk about what I am learning day by day, the breakthroughs I am having, so I started this website.
I want to ask you a question. What kind of influence are you having on your family and friends? Are you a joy to be around or do you have a tendency to complain and pull people down? Don’t tell them to be positive and happy; show them.
If you have young children you will notice that they try to copy whatever you do. If you get angry or upset easily then they will learn to be that way. On the other hand when you show them that you are stronger then your circumstances, then they will learn to take control of their own lives. They will learn to be courageous in the face of difficulties. They will learn to solve problems without being negative and this of course will lead to intelligent and successful solutions. When you go after your goals with persistence they will learn that there is nothing that they can’t be or achieve.
It doesn’t matter if you have a
website
or a blog or not, you can still let your light shine. Spread the joy and hope. It is the noblest thing that you can do. Don’t forget what you give out always comes back to you. The more joy you give, the more it will be given to you. A few months ago I was reading something inspiring about how to give, how to have a positive impact on people and my partner asked me for a cup of tea. I said to him, “Can you please make it yourself, I have to finish this book about Giving”. What? To my own ears it sounded funny and a bit hypocritical. I would rather read and preach about giving then to actually give. So I left my reading made two cups of cinnamon tea. We had a great time drinking tea in the balcony and enjoying the view of the mountains. Not only I made someone else happy but I also enjoyed myself in the process. Sometimes actions do speak louder then words. Be a good and positive influence on people in your life. Do little things to make their day a little brighter. Treat them as you want them to treat you. Keep your
thoughts
and words free of criticism and judgment. Be encouraging. Show genuine gratitude if someone does something nice for you. Maintain a positive attitude on life, this way not only you will attract more abundance for yourself but also your goodness will rub off on other people.
