Getting anything you want in life

In this article are time tested and proven methods to get anything you want in life. Although there are several ways to go about that, one sure fire way is through people. Before I proceed, I would not want to make you think that you should engage in manipulating other people for your own benefits but these are techniques that emphasize a win-win situation for everyone.
In life, there are two approaches to solving problems. The first but unproductive way is by being independent, that is believing in one’s full capacity to success and solve problems by oneself without the aid of other people. The second and very effective approach is to have the mindset and attitude of bring interdependent, meaning to live as having other people help and you reciprocating the gesture. The most fulfilled individuals have the second disposition as a way of life. They give and in time, receive back what they have given, sometimes many folds over.
As an interdependent person, with the need to build relationships with people and create a network, here are three suggestions of ways to create a network of individuals that you can lean on when you need to and who you have their back when the time arises:
Make contact: this basically means meeting people. But just beyond this, take note to add to your network; individuals of significance and value to you who also view you in the same light. There is a simple and straight forward way to make contatcts: Go out. Even though you may be an introverted Melancholy or Phelg, try to go out of your comfort zone to meet people aside from the regular group of friends you have. And how do you meet them? At conferences, at church, at school and on social networks. Try to meet at least a new person a week.
Follow up: this is a term common in church where a new member is followed up, i.e, he is kept in contact with. But it isn’t only a church thing. Successful individuals keep in touch with new and old contacts they make. A call, text message, email, Whatsapp or BBM message, Facebook or Twitter message are all ways to keep in touch. When you do this, the individual will appreciate this and have you in mind.
Add value: keeping in touch in itself is not enough but taking it to the next level by putting this person’s interests at the fore front makes more sense. If the person loves cars for instance, send an article on the latest race cars that you saw on the internet as an email to him, if she loves dancing, you could go to a show to see her perform. We add value to individuals based on their individuality. It takes knowing what each person wants and giving it to them. If you do this well, you will not be forgotten in a long time. If you need a job for instance, it won’t take more than a call or two and you’ll have it because you have invested in that relationship well enough to withdraw from it.
In summary, it’s not what you know that matters but who you know!
