About Blu-Collab: http://www.blucollab.com/
In a statement
released by the firm last week, Blu-Collab’s Managing Director, Ryan
Caramba-Coker discussed the power of influence on an individual’s actions and
success. Mr Coker also shared some of the steps he is encouraging his
contractors to take to attract positive influences into their lives.
Mr Coker
stated, “Growing up I would have considered myself an easily influenced person,
and I was told many times that this was a bad trait to have.”
However,
contrary to the popular phrase “don’t be easily influenced”, Mr Coker explained
that there are two valuable reasons why he believes that it is wrong to abide
by this mantra.
First of
all, every person is influenced by life events, experiences and individuals
that they meet along the way. Professional sports people cite a many other
successful sports figures as their influence, while famous singers, authors and
filmmakers also regularly discuss some of the key figures that influenced and
inspired their decision to pursue their particular career path.
Secondly,
being influenced is a good thing, providing, of course, those influences are
positive and inspire growth and development.
Mr
Caramba-Coker believes that external influences have a significant impact on
how individual’s form their values and belief systems. He then went on to state
that if individuals allow themselves to be influenced, success will eventually
be a sure thing, just as long as they are seeking the right people to be
influenced by.
Mr Coker
explained that it could be difficult for individuals when the people they trust
don’t understand some of the things they are trying to achieve. However, Mr
Coker believes that everyone can change their lifestyle if they follow these
four steps:
1 - Decide
the lifestyle they want
2 - Find
someone who has already achieved that
3 - Copy
the actions they do and listen to their advice
4 - Don’t
get distracted by people who haven’t achieved what they want
“I believe
whatever you want to achieve can be accomplished. At Blu-Collab I actively
encourage all of my contractors to write down a list of things they dream of. A
vast majority of the time, they come up with things that have already been
achieved by someone. It just takes discipline to fulfil a goal. Everyone has
the ability to achieve what they want today. They just need to go out and get
influenced!”
