In the Evolution Island community, a classmate asked me a question: Sir, you know so many people, how do you manage your contacts? I said, create value. What kind of value you can create, you will know what kind of people.

Quite frankly, I hardly spend time on managing contacts myself. I personally think that friendship between gentlemen is as pale as water. Good interpersonal relationship, there is no need to eat together every day, or to give a gift every New Year.

三和一善

Many people try their best to please others or work hard to manage contacts in order to one day the other person can help you. This state is not right. A basic mentality to always maintain: Put your value on others without reservation. Try to do everything possible to help others aimlessly. After you have accumulated for a long time, become an expert in a certain field, and have influential works, those truly meaningful contacts will flock to you.

An excellent and valuable person will naturally attract the recognition and help of other excellent and valuable people. When you have no money, no resources, no background, only your strength, your performance, and your work are the best weapons that make you stand out from the crowd.

If you don't have your own real ability, you can't help others. No matter how many people you know, they won't be your contacts. The essence of personal connections is equal exchange. When you make yourself good enough, praise, recognition, connections, everything you want, will come.

Only good people have effective contacts.

The more valuable you are, the more others will help you
Regarding how to improve the value of contacts, the guest of Evolution Island, Mr. Xuepin Chen (founding partner of Wisdom Cloud) once shared on the island: When you organize your business card holders, have you done statistics? Among the hundreds of business cards, there are How many people will become your friends, and what will you do together in the future?　 (Kazuyoshi Miwa / Osamu Maruyama) (三和一善)
