Have you ever looked at your friends, significant other, or random people who happen to come into your life and wondered how you attracted this type of person?

Maybe you are happy when you see that reflection in your friendships. Even your following online, Medium, for example. What kinds of people are you attracting?

Is it an audience of other supportive creators, or is it full of trolls and people who do not understand you?

When you start to look at the external, it is a perfect clue of who you are on the inside.

When I was working in the hospital, I worked in the most stressful area of the hospital, the ICU, critical care. Not a site full of happy doctors or patients, nurses we go with the flow, adapt and change to suit our environment.

And allowing someone else’s energy to dictate the type of day my patients and I would have was a no go for me. I refused to comply. If the doctor running the unit were in a bad mood, I would never let him shake me. If I did, it would funnel down to my patients.
