Speaking of connections, networking is one of the huge reasons why the rich get richer.
Think about it. Let’s say you have a great invention that will automatically make your breakfast each morning, but your only friends work at the local factory and at a nearby car wash. How much are your connections going to do for you? Ummm…nothing.
Now, let’s say that you have that same idea for the automatic breakfast machine and your network of friends includes:
- the owner of three manufacturing companies,
- a design engineer,
- and an executive at QVC
Suddenly, your odd invention is starting to sound like a real money maker!
The more connections you make, the better your chances are at becoming rich. This is why the wealthy are often very friendly and likable.
This is also why people that win the lottery typically blow through all their money. First of all, they have no idea how to invest it, but they also have no high-powered friendships that can help them expand their wealth – only a bunch of broke friends that have hair-brained ideas…
Action Items:
- Always have a smile on your face. This is step number one to meeting people.
- Become a member of some clubs in your areas. This could be at a private golf course or an exclusive business club. Whatever you think would help you meet people of influence.
