If you want to grow a plant, quality of seed is just one variable.
You need a fertile soil. You need manure. You need sunlight. You need water. In short, you need the right environment.
Talent and mindset that you have is the seed. But you need the right context to plant yourself in (soil). You need coaching and mentoring (manure). You need right challenges (sunlight) where your talent can show up. You need resources (water) to learn and improve.
You need the right environment.
The good news is: You can choose and create your environment.
Suround yourself with people who are doing what you want to do. Interact with them. Learn from them. Get the right mentors. Work with people who challenge you to become better. Read good books. Attend classes, webinars, events that expose you to learning opportunities.
“Surround yourself with people where your desired behavior is the normal behavior.” – James Clear
It is all about our choices. Choices put us in an environment. Environment widens our perspectives and increases our chances to achieve what we want to achieve.
We are a product of our environment.
