11 Habits That Exude Success
The more people you know, the more good opportunities will present themselves.
But also think of a network in terms of image: Knowing lots of people shows that you are likable and in high demand. To maintain a pool of contacts, however, takes work. You should return phone calls and e-mails promptly.
Work towards being seen as trustworthy and reliable.
Talking to people everyday works wonders. Anyone from your baker to the person on the bus next to you could be a potential connection to something good. Beyond that, your knack for small talk with anyone will demonstrate openness and a willingness to accept new things and ideas. It also shows that you treat everyone with respect.
Now this is crucial: You should do people favors even if you don't expect to get them repaid. Most people know how to be grateful, and your kindness will come back one day, perhaps twofold.
