Set Networking Goals


This time of year see's many people making New Years resolution for themselves - You know - Spend more time with their family, Lose a few pounds or just simply to Work less and I was no different. My New Years resolution this year - 'To have FUN & To work smarter - not harder'. For me that means not trying to reinvent the wheel, especially when I am fortunate to have so many fantastic people and resources in my life.

So whilst "That Referral Guy" will put together the newsletter, all the tips have come from the book 29% Solution by Dr Ivan Misner & Michelle Donovan

Tip 1 - Set Networking Goals

Each goal you create should be SMART: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Timed with a deadline.

S - Clearly defined with parameters
M - have some quantifiable way to measure progress
A - within reach
R - so you will be motivated to accomplish it
T - so you won't lose your focus and your desire.

"Being considerate of others will take you further in life than a college degree." - Author, Marian Wright Edelman

Your action for today is to focus on driving your vehicle in a very considerate manner.
