Yeah, I think the first thing to be able to create a great network is don't build a network. I don't build a network. I build friendships. I build relationships. There's a huge difference. Networking to me is transactional. And I think as soon as you're transactional, things change dramatically. So

You know, if you need something to happen by a certain time, I think that relationship is inherently going to be transactional. And I would call that that's going to be like a drive by friendship. It's probably not going to be sustainable. And. So I view things very differently. I view things as building a friendship, and I never think of monetizing a relationship.

I think that's the kiss of death. So I go into every relationship just saying, is this an interesting person that I would like to get to know? Because I have wound up in some pretty amazing spots in my life. And when I wind up in that spot or in that room or in that situation where I'm like, how the hell did I get here? When I reverse engineer it, it's never a straight line.

It's this crazy circuitous path that takes me back to Okay, eight years ago, Heather Monaghan reached out to me to ask me a question, and I built this friendship that I had no idea you would be in my first book. Write the foreword to my second book that... Eight years later, I'd be on your podcast and all the other incredible things that happened.

I think if I looked at it as how am I going to monetize this relationship with Heather Monahan in the next 36 years, 90 days, we probably wouldn't be talking today. But most people, that's how they think about things. And I would say that screws everything up.

um so there's so many things you have to do uh to build relationships and i think first most people think they're really good at building relationships because everybody has some friends or everybody gets something from social media but i would say in my opinion most people are not great at building relationships i just know Let's just use LinkedIn as an example.
