FFN 095: Connecting with Powerful People

We've all heard the adage that you are the average of your five closest friends. I don't take that too literally but I do know that when I surround myself with powerful people, life changes. There was a time in my life where I lacked any real intentionality about who I surrounded myself with and the results (or lack thereof) showed.

Since those days, I'm made a deliberate and strategic decision to find people who are thriving in ways I want to thrive and put into action some strategies that have connected me with New York Times Bestselling Authors, elite warriors and athletes, multi-millionaire business owners, and, frankly, some of the most successful people on the planet.

The reason I want you to listen very closely to this episode is that I'm not particularly anything special. There are a lot of men out there who believe that the reason I've been able to connect with these people is because I'm successful. Guys, that just isn't true. I may be experiencing some success now but when I started Order of Man, I had absolutely no track record of success. I've simply figured some things out and executed relentlessly.

So this isn't something only extraordinary people can do. Whether you're achieving huge levels of success of none at all, everyone can implement the five steps I'm going to share with you and do the same thing I've done.

The first point I need to make is that all of these five steps have the foundational element of adding value. I want you to focus on serving others and enhancing their lives. That's it. At it's most basic level, that is how you succeed and position yourself in the company with the right people. But let's break this down even further.
