Show Notes:
You need to grow your community because you are built for relationships.
The first step to growing your community is being interested in people.
When you become truly interested in others, then you become contagious to them because they know you’re invested in their success and their story.
Surround yourself by people who are committed to your success and who are shaping, sharpening and pushing you to grow.
We don’t like to be told the truth, so we tend to grow into isolation because it’s safe and not challenging.
We need to cultivate relational boundaries to prevent your community from controlling you and forming co-dependency.
The most fulfilling community is the one that is mutually beneficial where everyone is getting something out of the relationship.
Don’t just be a consumer in your relationship, be a contributor so everyone is involved and coming alive.
Authenticity is what gives you permission to speak into anyone’s life. If you’re fake, then you’ll never surround yourself with the community.
