“Any time you help someone get closer to their goal, you’re adding value.” - Paul Brunson

Do you treat everyone the same, or do you pick and choose the people you want to be in contact with? Do you find yourself quickly judging people and expecting them to help you?

You’re doing yourself a huge disservice. You never know who is watching that has the power to bless you. Your people skills, in all areas of life, are what will make you or break you.

As a result, I’m going to give you 3 tips that will help you build your overall wealth.

Build a phenomenal relationship with yourself before you try to build one with others.

Treat everyone you meet with love, respect, and acknowledgment.

Don’t ask for things from others unless you’ve given at least 10x first.

If you follow these three simple rules you’ll open up possibilities you never thought were possible.

The Cliff Notes:

There’s always someone watching you that has the power to bless you.

The same pillars that go into romantic relationships also go into personal and business relationships.

We all need to be better listeners.

There’s a difference between hearing and listening.

Listening allows you to capture the moment and acknowledges the other person.

Everyone wants to be acknowledged.

Don’t ask for things too early.

To build a rapport you need to give, give, and give.

Social media has allowed people to fake it without ever making it.

We all want autonomy, impact, and money.

Those with high standards and high expectations always have a higher quality of life.

If you want to create phenomenal relationships with other people you have to first create a phenomenal relationship with yourself.

Would you rather have 100,000 Twitter followers or just have Oprah follow you?
