How do you get more than you hoped for?

It is not what you know, the will help you the most in life, but, who you know. And you know already, at least 200 people. From school, from work, through your parents, in the neighbourhood where you live. Those 200 people in turn know also at least 200 people. That's 40,000 possible contacts and I'm not even at the end of this paragraph. There is a multiple of this number in possibilities if you wisely use this goldmine of contacts. Find it and take advantage of it. What you need to do is: build relationships and maintain them. They are your all-important tool to look for a job, business opportunity or anything else. You can fall back on them, rely on them and build on them. Relationships are like plants. They need attention, care and nutrition. Put energy and fun into your relationships and get energy and fun from them. Give respect. Share experience. Bestow confidence. Make the effort, multiply the effect. Build your relationships and yourself.
