Build Relationships

[Phiirso]

I thought this was a corny ass thread for the longest, but it really should be the main topic of this *Personal Development thread.

I grew up independent af but there is a certain barrier you will hit where you have to dress good and speak well. Graduate from the ghetto. I really thought this was bullshit on people's part.

Nope. Dress well, smell good, speak right, eat good. Eight months of unemployment circumvented by two weeks of networking. Need a job? Network. Support in life? Lean on your network. Good news? Blab to your network. Success in life means nothing w/out people there to witness it on your behalf.


Life w/out people supporting you is a diminished life of your own doing. I thought I could do everything by myself and realizing that I have to rely on others is something I never took into consideration.




You're depressed? Lean into your network. You're jobless? Network. ________________. Network. Network. Network.


What is networking?
-----'Weird looking mf, how are you?", Everywhere I go, I always get discounts and special access to **** because I make sure those servicing me are good. 99% of all people just want to feel good and go home to their xbox/playstation console. Be that one person that eases their life just a little bit and watch them bend over backwards to please you.


I really can't believe it took me this long to figure this out, but Network with people, genuinely though, and watch the quality of your life improve a ton. Life means little w/out a supportive community of people around you. You could have millions and if some dumb kid manages to convices enough people that your zeroes in the bank are worth nothing, you have a rebellion on your hands.

Network, build relationships, and prosper. If you hate people, tough luck, you already lost. Learn to socialize well and you'll be good for the rest of your life, don't, and you're going to be one of them **** I step over every morning omw to work.

I love not even doing anything or the bare minimum (a smile, hi) and still getting my way.


People are funny.

Real shit, just socialmaxx.

I'm an introvert, but I know how to socialize. The more sociable you are, the larger your network.

Also, have a give and take mindset. Don't look at people as people to use, but just genuinely help people to build the relationship.

When you need something, or a deal for a big purchase, the more people you know, the more expansive your network. The more expansive your network, the more connections. The more connections, the more deals.

Deals involving your career.
Deals involving things to buy.
Deals involving investment information.

Unless you're a high IQ man, or academiamaxxed, being a loner with no connections is limiting and a liability.

Go out, and talk to people guys.

For both of you, I've definitely gone about my life the wrong way.

The first relationship you should build and always prioritize is the one between you and your creator. From this one relationship, all life flows from it.

I somehow agree with you but you seem to equate being outgoing to happiness which I disagree. First of all, I truly believe and have witnessed myself that happiness is connected to one’s obedience to Allah. It’s that connection to Allah that opens doors for you.

I do agree that going out of your comfort zone is very beneficial. But someone should also be at ease whilst in solitary. A lot of outgoing people that I know, can’t spend an hour alone without demons creeping up on them and they’ll be lost in their thoughts. Having a sparkling social life isn’t the answer to the issues that you raised. It’s too simplistic of an answer.

Sxb..... I'm literally making this up as I live my life. Give me some slack waraa



It's been a long time since I was truly obediant to Allah. Obediance comes from your heart.... Not from consciousness actions.


I didn't know how minuscule I was with my petty bs compared to his all-knowing power.... my own regret. It's extremely funny/tragic how fast your life becomes like hell when you disobey the simple instructions of Allah. Hell is not only in the hereafter, but very readily down here on Earth.


You're right however. Someone should be good with solitary, solitary with Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala). I think no matter what, no matter how utterly alone anyone is, yo, you really must acknowledge the other being that is all around you.

What do you mean PEOPLE LIKE ME

 

[Phiirso]

What do you mean PEOPLE LIKE ME

I'm sorry, I don't know how to take compliments well.


thanks......

 

[ReerVanCadde]

It goes both ways. If someone invites you to dinner at their home I suspect they expect the same.if someone scratches your back they'll need scratching as well.
There's a transactional nature to it. Freebies are cool until your that 'guy'.

 

[emonrah]

My take on this as I'm getting older is that shit gets complicated like woman why you tying me down just chill!! Any sort of relationship feels like it needs to be defined right away. I miss just being able to just make friends and then see them again without any pressure the next day because we all in the same school or class lol

For women, I just wanting to have some fun, but the typical-attractive ones think they're higher rated than they actually are so it's weird to find the same perspective of life and balance with anyone

Nowadays, with the covid thing happening especially, it just feels so different. What's your thoughts on this?

 

[IstarZ]

I was listening to a podcast, a while back about how we socialise. We tend to stick to people who we share common interests with and how that could be limiting our growth. With all things, go outside your comfort zone. Sometimes there are people you think you’d never get along with or you think you’re just too different.. but as you grow older you realise people aren’t so different.
