In an extension of our discussion on Networking, here’s another important factor for enjoying speed and accelerated growth in business and career: ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐๐ต๐ถ๐ฝ๐.โฃ
โฃ
A relationship is the way two or more people are connected, or the way they behave toward each other.โฃ
โฃ
Unfortunately, most people are of the opinion that they do not need anyone to succeed in life, except God (Well, God uses people, majority of the times – this is a topic for another day).โฃ
โฃ
Some simply lack ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น ๐๐ธ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ and so they struggle while trying to connect with those who can assist them.โฃ
โฃ
Interpersonal skills are really important in having a better relationship at home and work. They aid effective communication – which is the lifeline of any relationship – with others, whether family, friends, colleagues, customers or clients.โฃ
โฃ
Examples of interpersonal skills areโฃ:
1. ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐น๐ณ ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐; having a better understanding of yourself, likes and dislikes, will help you understand other people’s point of views which in turn will encourageโฃ a healthy and lasting relationship.
2. ๐๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐๐ป๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป; which includes verbal, nonverbal and listening skills. โฃ
3. ๐๐บ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐๐ต๐; being able to understand and share the feelings of others.โฃ
Relationships that stand the test of time don’t just happen. They take dedicated amount of time, energy and consistent work.โฃ
โฃ
However, most people only want to enjoy the thrills of knowing someone without putting in the work to make the relationship better.โฃ
โฃ
For those who are intentional about building a lasting relationship, here are some ways to achieve that:โฃ
1. ๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฐโฃ
Be who you are & accept others as they are. Itโs easy to create a false persona, especially online, but that is not the way to build a relationship.โฃ
โฃ2. ๐๐ฒ ๐ฉ๐๐น๐ป๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒโฃ
Being vulnerable is a way to be authentic. Sharing & supporting each other through difficult situations is a great bonding tool. But be careful: do this with a selected few.โฃ
3. ๐๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น๐ผ๐ฝ ๐ ๐๐๐๐ฎ๐น ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐โฃ
Over time, it is pertinent to develop mutual respect. It is very essential for growing relationships. This will definitely take time, so be patient.โฃ
4. ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐โฃ
Always go into relationships with an open mind, realistic expectations & never assume. If we have preconceived expectations of people, then we are setting ourselves up for disappointment.โฃ
5. ๐ข๐ณ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฆ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ฒ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐๐๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฆ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ดโฃ
When we help & inspire others with our experience & expertise, we are building the foundation for trust that underlies relationships that endure.โฃ
Human beings are naturally social creatures โ we crave friendship and positive interactions, just as we do food and water. We desire Relationship, whether at work, home, or school.
Let’s sustain and nurture these relationships by trusting, being open, forgiving, and communicating.
