The Networking Prophecy

As a champion networker, can you predict your networking success? Can you look into the future and see all of your endeavors and hard work fulfilled? Can you see yourself at the top of the mountain? Many professionals have visions for big success and use their positive thoughts, resources and hard sweat to achieve their business and social goals. There are ways in which professionals can gage their success and create a path of possibility to reaching their goals and objectives.

Listed below are specific ways in which professionals can claim their networking victories ahead of time!

Date Line

All prophecies have an expected date of completion. What is your predicted date of success? Is it within one month, one year or five years? Is this time frame realistic to seeing your networking endeavors come to pass? The best way to select a date is to make a list of steps needed to reach your objectives. These steps should be detailed and dated so that you can reach a date of completion for the mission.

Roll Call

Who are the key players in the fruition of your prophecy? Who is carrying the mantle of success or running the race to the finish line? Who or what is needed as a form of resources and contacts? How are their abilities, services and products valuable to reaching the networking goal? These are important questions to answer because they set the platform for the vision. These are workable tools that can be added or subtracted during the time process.

The Journey

To see a prophecy come to pass, there is usually a journey period. During this journey there can be tests and trials and as well as mini victories and triumphs. As a champion networker, what ways do you use to navigate through the journey? How can you sustain yourself or grow and develop during this period? Is it necessary to get a mentor or join a professional group of like minded individuals? Is it necessary to gain more training through reading books or attending workshops or classes?
