You can go a long way by yourself, but you advance much better, much faster, with the help of others. Seek out others with a common purpose and help each other. Work through your mentors. Find them. Tell them why you admire them. Successful people will not be threatened by your enthusiasm for success. Sincerely ask for their help and often you will be rewarded with positive suggestions and the names of contacts. Carry and exchange businesscards. Rehearse a personal introduction that clearly and precisely states who you are and what you do. Form alliances for common purposes. Establish your own personal support systems. Where do you find good attorneys, physicians, investment advisors, dentists, tailors, or contractors? Ask those you respect for recommendations. If you have a computer, buy a contact management program, and as you meet new people, add them to your personal network database. Keep in regular contact with your network. Form your support systems and personal networks before you need them. |
