440 - Stop Taking Advice From People Who Don’t Have the Life You Want

As you become more successful, something interesting happens:Fewer and fewer people are actually qualified to give you advice.In this episode of Superhuman Selling, Elyse Archer explores the relationship between discernment, mentorship, and self-trust, and why being intentional about whose advice you allow into your life becomes increasingly important as you grow.Elyse shares the story of making an investment in coaching and mentorship that was equal to nearly half of what she had earned the previous year, despite not having the money sitting around to comfortably make the decision. Instead of asking everyone around her what they thought, she became incredibly selective about whose perspective she allowed in.That decision ultimately helped catapult her business to an entirely different level.You’ll learn why Elyse believes you should stop taking advice from people who don’t have the results you want, why financial success alone isn’t enough when choosing mentors, and how to look at the entire LIFE someone has created before deciding whether you want to learn how they think.She also shares how to create your own personal board of advisors, made up of the people whose perspectives, beliefs, results, and lives represent where you want to go.Because the goal isn’t to outsource every decision.The goal is to become more discerning about who you listen to while learning to trust yourself more deeply.
