Surround yourself with successful, high-earners to get Rich

Who you hang out with matters more than you may think. In fact, your net worth tends to mirror that of your closest friends, Siebold points out.

"Successful people generally agree that consciousness is contagious, and that exposure to people who are more successful has the potential to expand your thinking and catapult your income," the self-made millionaire writes. "We become like the people we associate with, and that's why winners are attracted to winners."

Looking for a new crew to roll with? Consider joining a high-end tennis, golf, health, or business club, Eker suggests in "secrets of the millionarie mind". "If there's no way you can afford to join a high-end club, have coffee or tea in the classiest hotel in your city," he writes. "Get comfortable in this atmosphere and watch the patrons, noticing they're no different from you."

The 4 Types of People to Surround Yourself With for Success

Relentless workers.

You probably know somebody who is a relentless worker, or perhaps you are one yourself. These types of workers push us to work harder each and every day. While measuring personal success against the success of another is like comparing apples and oranges, we can measure our drive with the drive of other relentless workers. True passion and commitment will breed a successful business.

Positive attitudes.

People tend to be better at what they’re doing if they’re happy. Negative attitudes can drag down work ethic and they don’t offer any inspiration for success or innovation. Surrounding yourself with negative people can bog down your creativity and drive and it could ultimately be the downfall of your business. People with positive attitudes can actually have the opposite effect, facilitating your leap towards success more effectively. Bringing happiness inside the workplace will keep morale high and will keep people looking forward.

People who ask questions.

Albert Einstein once said “the important thing is to not stop questioning.” As entrepreneurs, we should constantly be asking questions about ourselves and our business. However, no single person will think of every important question. People who ask questions may provide a different angle on an issue or an idea, and these questions could ultimately lead to an important breakthrough for you or your business. Perspective is everything.

Dreamers.

Some non-entrepreneurial types will consider all entrepreneurs “dreamers.” However, we understand that setting goals and working hard will help us achieve what many consider to be unachievable. To keep this drive going, we should always be surrounding ourselves with people who have similar goals in mind. These dreamers don’t even need to be involved in the same industry as you or your business; the important thing is that you keep close people with big plans for themselves. Seeing other people’s drive will keep you hungry to reach your goals.
