It's Not Who You Know, It's Who Knows YOU
People do business with people they know, like and trust.
People who smile are 100 times more attractive than those that do not smile.
Project yourself in a self-confident manner. What does confidence look like?
Confidence exudes from a person that has excellent posture and dresses well. Dressing well includes the color choices you make, the shine of your shoes, your hair and the fit and style of the garments. Everything you wear makes a statement about you.
Take a look in the mirror and think about the image you project. Is this image appealing to the people you wish to attract in to your life and connect with?
Make eye contact with people. You will radiate confidence and eye contact is a display of truth and trust.
Your positive attitude will be an attraction to others. Avoid the emotional vampires that drain you and your energy.
Preparation is the key to success. 90% of success is showing up and being prepared. Preparation requires time and work. There is no such thing as being over prepared.
Take a genuine interest in others. Ask open-ended questions of a non-prying nature.
Find something in common with people. Common interests add to the strength of the friendship.
Everyone wants to make powerful connections. Do powerful people want to connect to you? That depends on the interest you generate.
The image you project will determine your ability to make solid connections. You need a first class image.
People judge you by your actions. You must always give a first class performance.
Provide value. Provide more value than you expect to get. Value based connections are built to last.
Your reputation precedes you. Your current reputation determines your future destiny.
Be yourself. Your personal and professional best self each and every day.
