"Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another." — Napoleon Hill


Hello AWMS subscriber :

The old adage about reaping what we sow, also known as karma, implies that our first action is to plant some seeds. Yet repeatedly I see people in business and elsewhere asking others for something of value without offering much in return.

To an influencer, the question, "Can I buy you a coffee" means "If I spend $5.00 on you, will you give me your time and expertise?"

If you'd like to build a relationship with an influential person, offer to connect them to another influencer. Be a networker rather than someone seeking rank or prestige.

Ask, "Can I interview you for my podcast or blog?" Or, "I know someone who could help you promote your product or service. Can I put them in touch with you?"

Relationship management demands empathy. And empathy requires us to understand our self — not only who are we, but why we think, feel, and act the way we do.

To acquire high levels of self-awareness, we must be honest with ourselves and others. Personal integrity comes from vulnerability and a preference for understanding that surpasses our need to be right.

As much as others may benefit from our truthfulness, it's the individual who is willing to be honest and forthright who benefits the most — directly as well as from his or her influence and persuasion of others.
