Excellent analysis 💜 Sir what would be some best books to read for People skills- i have heard that Co-workers are not your friends so how to build relationships at work to succeed faster than normal as it is said that network is networth ? Could you explain what one should be doing strategically in order to increase value & influence without being trapped in taking unwise steps or staying around losers.. People or experts on this issue have different and contradicting view points some say coworkers are not your friends, some say they can be friends..its confusing so last stop is i believe in your opinion about complex subjects...
First of all, your question around a strategic approach for work relationships resonates with me. I feel that this topic is worth its own video and I will put this on my list! Thank you!! Personally I had some great work relationships that stayed completely professional and a few (very few!) that lasted long before our professional paths parted. I don't think there is a one size fits all but it depends on how you wish to integrate your work with the rest of your lifestyle. Again - great content for an upcoming video! And finally, books. There are so many resources these days and I find it hard to pick a favorite. So let me go with a couple of choices that are probably not mainstream. Both of them are not purely about relationships with others but then I beleive that growing as individuals will also determine who we interact with. I highly recommend "Lost Connections" by Johann Hari for its profound analysis of human interactions and "Not a Life Coach" by James Smith. Both of those books resonated with my personal values but even if you disagree with the authors you will learn quite a bit!. Thanks so much for your inspiration and support!
