How To Take Action
A good way of doing this is to start by thinking about where you can be the "go-to" person in your field. Look for a niche or area where you have expertise or unique resources. Focus on that and become the person everyone wants to connect with for that specific knowledge, skill, or resource.
I would suggest implementing a plan to build your network, but do it with purpose. Go to events or join online communities where influential people in your industry hang out. Make yourself known by contributing valuable insights and help.
Don't just gather contacts; nurture relationships by offering value without expecting anything in return right away. Share your knowledge, connect people with others who can help them, and keep showing up. The more useful you are to others, the more they'll want to maintain a relationship with you.
Here's a step-by-step action plan:
- Find your niche: Identify what you're good at or what valuable resource you control.
- Network with purpose: Attend events, join forums, and interact with industry leaders.
- Offer value: Help others, share knowledge, and be resourceful.
- Be consistent: Keep engaging with your network regularly.
- Be patient: Building meaningful relationships takes time, but it pays off.
Remember, it's about becoming someone valuable to others, so they look to you for the access only you can provide. This way, you create a circle of influence and opportunities that come to you, instead of you chasing them.
