Don't Be A Stranger
Man is a social animal.
At least that's what we've been told from time immemorial.
To live abundantly, love graciously and interact positively, we need to mingle impact-fully.
Be it a group of friends, colleagues or relatives, we need to ensure we are not only adding value but also receiving value. That is the only way to entrench purpose in whatever we do.
We hear much about intentional living as espoused by people like John Maxwell. It is very important we become intentional in things we aspire for and do so that we can attain set goals which will help us all in our various lives.
Obviously, from the above in order to achieve meaningful things in our lives, we need people. And in being intentional, we must actively engage in searching and reaching out for the right kind of people to realise whatever lofty dreams we might have.
Therefore, take a moment to note the following:
- Write down the key characteristics of the kind of persons you want to be associated with
- Highlight the different people in your circle right now who fit the characteristics you have highlighted above
- Note a separate set of people you would like to meet, either because of their comportment or because you are interested in their experiences and/or type of business
- Plan to attend at least four events before the end of this year of 2019. Please don't confuse events in this context to mean owambe parties and star boi's concert - I am referring to intellectual seminars and/or workshops that will enable you improve your skills. Remember what Brian Tracy said? 'Learn more to earn more'. Subsequently, every year you should schedule to attend a minimum of six events that would serve as a learning and networking resource
- Actively, meet new people during the course of your day-to-day activities. Think about how you could help their endeavours and vice versa. This will prompt your mind to consciously find out what they do for a living
If you follow these few steps, I am confident you will set yourself up for a more adventurous and beneficial future.
Meet people, mingle and above all, don't be a stranger.
