"If you want to be an Olympian, then hang out with the Olympians"
Little mantras like this one hold so much truth.
No matter what you want to achieve in life, someone has already done it. (This is a principle of Jack Canfield's Success Principles)
The point is simple, go to the experts and ask. Ask those who have done it, hang around them, learn their habits, and self conversation, and lessons they learned along the way.
If you want to be an Olympian then it wouldn't make sense to hang out on street corners idling your time away..or around other athletes that were not successful. NO!
Hanging with other successful driven athletes and the right coaches is where you would go. This takes guts! It might be uncomfortable, and you may not get the "approval" of your current friends and family. You have to literally find and put yourself right in the middle of those who are currently or have achieved a high level of success.
Your goals have to be big and audacious...the kind of goals that scare you!
I was just at the greatest event ever, and I loved it when Bob Proctor made it so clear that you cannot achieve anything without BIG AUDACIOUS GOALS...goals that are then backed up with a strategy! Oh, how I loved being schooled by him...he is the best and most forward thought leader of our time. wow!
Find the best people you can to be schooled by, get around them, be open, let go of the fight, and start strategizing to move towards your big audacious goals! yay!

Steph, you hit this nail right on the head. I didn't know I could be an Olympian until I started hanging out with one or two.
