Tip: Association Fallacy
Now that you are taking yourself seriously as a professional, start surrounding yourself with other professional and influential people in your industry. Don't be afraid to introduce yourself at parties and at other social gatherings. People won't know who you are if you don't speak up. So find your inner voice, and let the people know you are on the scene, ready to network. Don't waste your time trying to impress, just be yourself, and the people you want to surround yourself with will come.
Eliminate the negative personalities in your life, and those who have pessimistic views-they will mentally poison you. Also, stay away from people who have a bad reputation for attitudes and trouble - you will be guilty by association! So stay positive, and surround yourself with others who best represent you and your brand.
"Be careful the environment you choose for it will shape you; be careful of the friends you choose for you will become like them."
~ W. Clement Stone
