The Power of Attraction: Who’s in Your Circle?

by | May 28, 2025 | Life Inspiration, Resilience, Self-help | 0 comments

You don’t attract what you want. You attract who you are.

Take a moment to look around at the people closest to you, your inner circle. Are they lifting you up or pulling you down? Are they helping you grow or keeping you stuck? The truth is, the energy you give off determines the kind of people you draw in.

Years ago, I found myself constantly surrounded by negativity, complainers, excuse-makers, people who doubted every good idea. I finally realized it wasn’t just them… it was me. I was in a negative mindset, and without knowing it, I was attracting what I was giving off. When I made a conscious decision to change my mindset, to focus on gratitude, growth, and purpose…. everything shifted. People with the same mindset started showing up in my life.

Here’s a simple example: Let’s say you’re training for a marathon. You’ll naturally start spending time with other runners, eating healthier, talking about endurance and discipline. But if you’re partying every weekend and skipping runs, guess what? You’ll attract people who do the same.

Your inner circle reflects your current mindset. If you want better, be better. The right people will follow.

Choose wisely—because who you’re with is who you become.
