It has been observed and proven that things we see, hear and experience in ways, influence us positively or negatively. Whatever we open our mind to over a period of time gets into our subconscious and then grows to become a factor in which we live our lives by.
I noticed this in myself due to interaction with people and observations they made about me. In a way, the major male figure I see and speak to on a daily basis is my father. Funny enough, people who know me very well say I act, talk and behave exactly like him, even when I argue with them, they remind me of my behavior or judgment at one time or the other in the past which they know or feel he (my father) would have reacted in the same way.
I picked this topic because I can say due to experience and observation that whatever we expose ourselves to affects us a great deal. This is why mentors, motivators and preachers try to get into our minds through their writings, messages and teachings.
There are people we know that carry what we want, the more we listen, walk and work with them, understand their sense of reasoning and judgment and their philosophies to life and we subject ourselves to their pattern of operation, naturally we would begin to produce our desires and results we see in them.
In as much as they are not perfect, we would be able to discern which of their ways we want to follow and make changes that would facilitate our expectations in our daily lives.
My advice is, pick positive mentors, expose yourself to their materials, learn their ways and replicate them in your life and you would achieve outstanding results.
Another major point of influence is exposure, the more you are opened to learning (being teachable), the more you go out, see new things, and widen your horizon, the more you would drift towards the change you seek.
With all this said, finding people who would propel you to your expectation should be your main concern and work because there is no quality you desire that one person does not have or portray already. Also make sure you expose yourself to the right influence because whatever you are opened to as the power to make or destroy you.
