How to REALLY Build a Network
Summary
- Don't put networking above achieving your goals. If you reach your goals, you'll become even more valuable to your network.
- The more success you find, the more doors will open for you; if you're less successful, you'll become less relevant.
- You don't need to hustle as hard for connections if you're successful—big names like Joe Rogan, Elon Musk, or MrBeast can attest to that.
- People with significant success don’t need networking events; they’ve built a network through their achievements.

How To Take Action
I would suggest focusing on your goals before worrying too much about networking. When you're working hard to reach your goals, you become more awesome. As you get more awesome, you don't have to try as hard to make friends with important people.
Here's what you can do:
Set Clear Goals: Decide what you want to achieve. Make sure these goals are big and exciting. They should be something that makes you jump out of bed in the morning ready to start the day.
Work Hard to Achieve Them: Put in the effort every day to make your goals a reality. Remember, the more you achieve, the more people will want to know you.
Share Your Success: When you do something great, tell people about it! You can use social media or just tell your friends and family. This way, people will know what you're doing and how good you are at it.
Be Patient: Building a network takes time. It's not about handing out business cards; it's about showing what you can do. So, keep working on your goals and the right people will come to you.
Skip Networking Events for Now: You don't need to go to events just to meet people. Big names like Joe Rogan and Elon Musk don't go to these events, because people come to them. Be so good at what you do that people come to you instead.
Remember, working on what you're good at is the best way to become someone others want to connect with. So keep being awesome, and your network will grow all by itself!
