Homework to Get Started Making ALL the Right Connections:
Know YOU!
- List 50 POSITIVE Attributes about yourself: List attributes that pertain to your personal and professional skills (eg. what you might put on a résumé); include emotional, mental, spiritual and physical. If you get stuck, ask your friends, family, and co-workers to help. This is a confidence-builder and eye-opening.
- Wealth Dynamics by Roger Hamilton: The Millionaire Master Plan: Your Personalized Path to Financial Success
This is what REALLY jump-started me on this wonderful new journey! Thanks to Kim Doyal for introducing me to this life-altering test and book. It has brought such clarity to why I love the things I do and gravitate towards the activities and interests that I do. When you are “in the flow” as many call it, everything comes together and makes sense. You are more productive, happier, more fulfilled, and live more in the moment. Don’t miss an opportunity to find out what makes you tick. Take the quiz and get the book. You will not regret it. - Buy These Books: Strengths Finder 2.0 will help you find your “Single Motivating Purpose”, How to Be a Power Connector will give you some of the best advice you will ever need to Make ALL the Right Connections, and Emotional Intelligence: 10th Anniversary Edition; Why It Can Matter More Than IQ will give you tremendous insight into relating to others.

Know Your TARGET MARKET/AVATAR
- Create Your Avatar: Form to Create Your Avatar
In order for you to know the right connections for you and your business, you have to decide who your audience and/or customers are. It’s VERY important to keep them in mind as you want your audience/customers to benefit from your connections – this will accelerate your profits. I have created a form for you to create your avatar(s) and keep them handy every time you go to reach out for a new connection. You may create more than one and I encourage you to do so!
Plan Your STRATEGY
- Create S.M.A.R.T. Goals: Form to Create Your S.M.A.R.T. Goals
It’s important to have a goal(s) in mind when you start searching for ALL the Right Connections so that you are not wasting time online or offline.
