When solving any important issue, most people seek the advice of friends and acquaintances. Friends will advise a good doctor who will carefully treat your problems. Acquaintance to get a job is much easier than to withstand a competition for a free vacancy. The more connections in the right circles, the easier and more enjoyable life. It’s not difficult to find useful contacts; you just need to take a closer look at the people around you.
Instruction manual
1
Think about what you know about your friends, neighbors, distant relatives. Do you remember where they work and study, what they are fond of? Do you know about changes in their lives? If you have not talked for a long time, be sure to remind yourself. There are no more useful people and less useful. Anyone can come in handy at some point in life.
2
Record regularly all the memorable events of your friends and acquaintances. Be sure to congratulate your desired people on holidays. Do not get off with a standard email congratulation. You will not spend much effort and time on sincerely and unconventionally congratulating a colleague on his promotion or a girlfriend on the birth of his first child. The more attentive you are to people, the more pleasant you will be recognized as a person. A pleasant person is helped much more often than a gloomy hermit.
3
Sign up for clubs of interest, take part in corporate parties, in continuing education courses, in professional trainings. Do not refuse to attend art exhibitions or charity auctions, even if you are not interested in art. After all, there you can make new useful contacts or strengthen old ties.
4
Make a file of all people you know personally. Fill in the data on the type of activity of a person, about family and friends, about addictions and hobbies. Do not forget to update on time or correct existing ones. Human memory is imperfect, and thanks to your records no one will remain forgotten and unclaimed at the right time.
5
Use the power of the Internet. Make acquaintances in professional and thematic forums, actively offer friendship on social pages. But try to filter your connections on the Internet, because on the network a person may not be who he claims to be.
6
Respond to requests for help if you can help. For the most part, people are gratefully repaying you with the same coin at the right time.
