Relationship For Success
Posted on April 19th, 2009 21 comments
Relationships are very important in your life. We never climb the mountains
of life and go through the valleys of life alone.
Never deny others the privilege of helping you when you need it.
I had a problem with that in my early days. I was hardheaded
and didn’t want help from anyone.
I wanted to prove to the world and every person that I could do it all on my own.
Whatever your goals are in life, you need others to help you along the way.
That includes at work, business, home, family and in your spiritual life too.
I opened my first karate school in a gym/fitness club here in North Carolina.
The only reason I could do that was because the manager and part owner of
the gym whose name is Laurie helped me out.
I met Laurie years before and made a good impression on her
as she did on me and because of that, half of the work was done
before I ask about working with her.
It’s always good to meet people and get to know them.
One day they may be able to help you out or you may help them out.
Meet as many people as you can; you may never get a second chance.
When you see someone new, give them a smile and say hello.
You never know the full impact that person could have in your life.
You never know when life will kick you!
Our relationships help carry us through the tough moments that happen in life
at times. It’s your relationships that help open doors for you in many areas of
your life. It’s your relationships that help you mold the person you are today.
Your relationships help you create your personality, demeanor, values and
character.

Our relationships are so important. I like your advice to smile and say hello when you see someone new.
A small smile can make a HUGE difference in your day!

I used to have the same problem, trying to prove to the world that I could “do it on my own”. Excellent reminder Lynn. Thank you.

that do it myself attitude nearly sank me several times. A friend reminded me “pride goeth before a fall” allowing someone to help you can be a very unselfish thing.

I agree that it’s great to make and nurture relationships of all kinds. What is important to the success of those relationships is that they be made for the sake of what is shared in the moment rather than for potential use or something to be gained in the future.

Having good, strong and solid relationships is one of the keys to a happy and fulfilled life. When everything is going well in the relationship department we are happy and doing well. When things go bad life sucks.

It is so true what you say about relationships.Sometimes, the gift you give others does not come back directly from them, but from another source, but it does come back…

It can take years and you may never see the direct route, but you generally get back what you put out when it comes to relationships.

The last sentence sums the post up nicely for me. The relationships we form will shape our character, which in turn will shape our destiny. Thus, we should watch our relationships carefully. Birds of a feather really do flock together!

Lynn,
This is a wonderful reminder that our success or failure can often be attributed to the way we treat those around us. Great reminder – it’s the relationships we have throughout our lives that mold us into people we are today.
Great reminder!

Great post! I had a lot of trouble accepting help from people. It just felt impolite to say yes. I always said no thank you even when I needed the help desperately.
One of my closest friends is one of my very first friends. We were so young when we met (4 or 5 yrs old) that we can’t even remember meeting. Our relationship is very special.

Hi Lynn,
In total agreement here! Have been through the hard headed stage as you say or in my case it was the heart of stone phase!
It wasn’t until the birth of my son that I truly realized what a real relationship needed and meant!
And like Rob says…nurture as many relationships as you can becuase you never know what may come of them

Over the last 20 years, Westerners understands the power of relationship in doing business in China.
Take it to the extreme, it becomes “It’s NOT what you know. But WHO you know.”
Actually in politics all over the world, it is the same story – relationship matters most!

We would wither up and die without them. I did the lone wolf thing for a short period of time to “find” myself. Although the periods of retreat are beneficial we usually come out of them realizing just how important our relationships are.
Kind Regards,
