One of the best ways to get noticed and be heard is to become an influencer. When you’re an influencer, you are looked up to, respected, and followed for advice and support. While there are many methods out there that you could use, here are some that many influencers are using on a regular basis.

Here are the 8 ways to becoming a powerful influencer:

1. Affect The Masses

If you want to become an influencer, you’ll need to be able to influence people at a large scale. Becoming an influencer in your industry can be simple if you do it right. Some of the ways you can do this is by becoming a speaker, learning skill sets that will drive more people to you, and going to local meetup groups and sharing your knowledge.

2. Think Bigger

Thinking bigger helps you reach your goals quicker. That doesn’t mean that you set unrealistic goals like going to Mars tomorrow. You should set realistic goals that are attainable and help push you in the right direction. Keeping a to-do list or a daily checklist will help you set bigger goals for the long term, and what you can do daily to accomplish them.

3. Create Opportunities

One of the most important things you can do as an influencer is to create opportunities for others. People are looking to learn and grow, and when you produce an opportunity that will help them achieve massive success in a short amount of time, they will stay with you till the end. Learn what others are looking for and what you can add to their lives to become successful.

“One of the most powerful networking practices is to provide immediate value to a new connection. This means the moment you identify a way to help someone, take action.” – Lewis Howes

4. Follow The Trends

Success leaves a trail. If you want to be a successful influencer, look at what is already working in the moment. Find out how people are becoming influencers in their niche and follow suit, but make sure not to copy them. Find out what successful influencers are doing right now, find out what you can do to add more value and solutions, and model their success.

5. Apply What You’re Learning

When you learn something you should be applying it immediately. Don’t read a book just to read a book. Instead, read or watch something that applies to you right now that will help you reach the next level. Doing this will keep you taking action and getting closer to your goals every single day.

6. Follow Systems

Humans fail. Systems don’t. The reason why influencers are successful is that they understand that people make mistakes. If you can help systematize the process and create methods by which things should be done, your success rate at becoming an influencer will increase.

7. Help Others More Than Yourself

It’s like Zig Ziglar’s saying, “You will get all you want in life, if you help enough other people get what they want.” When you can help others with their problems, dreams, and obstacles, you will receive the same therapy. Learn the proper skill sets that others are struggling with so that you can have an impact on their lives.

“No one has ever become poor by giving.” – Anne Frank

8. Show Up Everyday

One thing that a lot of people forget is that consistency builds trust. Trust at the end of the day is the most important factor in everything you do. The more consistent you can be, the more trust people have in you which leads to becoming a powerful influencer.

There are many benefits in becoming an influencer. Are you ready to start? Are you ready to become the person you’d like to be? You’ll be surprised at how many of these tips are being used by influencers every single day.

Tackling Procrastination and Indecisiveness

Hi, Joel Brown here. As the person behind Addicted to Success and Mind Strong, I’m often asked about tackling procrastination and making swift, effective decisions. It’s a common struggle in today’s world, where distractions are endless.

Procrastination often creeps in when we’re bombarded with social media notifications, breaking news, and the hustle of daily life. This leads to a fear-driven indecision, where we’re paralyzed by the thought of failure or judgment.

Here’s a video breakdown of how to stop procrastinating and be more decisive if you are more of a visual person:

Embracing Speed and Momentum to Stop Procrastination

One of the most impactful lessons in my journey is understanding the role of speed in overcoming procrastination. A mentor of mine, a highly successful individual, always emphasized:

“Success loves speed, and money loves momentum.”

This principle is crucial in combating procrastination. It’s about seizing opportunities quickly, not just for financial gain, but for the invaluable experiences and connections they bring.

Understanding Analysis Paralysis: A Key to Overcoming Procrastination

A major hurdle in decision-making is what’s commonly known as analysis paralysis, a significant form of procrastination. It happens when our decision-making process, governed by the prefrontal cortex, gets overwhelmed. To break free from this form of procrastination, try calming techniques like deep breathing. It’s surprising how such simple steps can clear a cluttered mind and help you move past procrastination.

The Long-Term Effects of Procrastination and Indecision

Procrastination isn’t just about putting off decisions; it can lead to a reduced sense of life satisfaction over time.

In a conversation I had with Tony Robbins, we discussed how the quality of our lives hinges on the quality of our decisions.

Therefore, overcoming procrastination and indecision is vital for a fulfilling life.

My Top Strategies for Beating Procrastination

Seek Guidance from the Experienced: To combat procrastination, connect with people who’ve achieved the goals you’re aiming for. Their experience can be a guiding light when you’re stuck in indecision.
Use Deadlines as Anti-Procrastination Tools: Setting deadlines is a powerful way to break the cycle of procrastination. They create a sense of urgency that pushes you into action.
Accept Imperfection to Move Past Procrastination: Understand that no one is perfect, and that includes you. Accepting this can alleviate the pressure that often leads to procrastination.

Identify Your Procrastination Type to Find Solutions

Procrastination manifests in various forms. I’ve developed a quiz (find it at mindstrongacademy.com/quiz) to help you identify your specific type of procrastination. Understanding your personal procrastination style is a crucial step in addressing it effectively.

Additional Tips on Making Quality Decisions and Beating Procrastination

When it comes to decision-making, it’s important to not get too bogged down in analyzing pros and cons. While analysis is important, excessive scrutiny can lead to procrastination. Trusting your intuition often plays a crucial role in breaking free from procrastination.

Handling Major Life Choices Without Procrastination

For significant decisions in life, whether in your career or personal relationships, procrastination can be particularly challenging.

To address this, break down these big decisions into smaller steps. Assess the potential outcomes realistically to understand that often, the fear of a negative outcome is more intimidating than the actual consequences.

Conclusion: Your Journey Away from Procrastination Begins Now

To wrap up, remember that overcoming procrastination and indecision is about understanding your own patterns, seeking wise counsel, setting deadlines, and embracing your imperfections. It’s time to start making those impactful decisions and enjoying the journey of life.

Whether it’s through the Mind Strong Academy or my procrastination quiz, I’m here to guide you on your path to decisive action.
