#101: Get to Know People

It’s time to make connections with new people. In this episode of the Decide Your Legacy Podcast, I explore the idea of reaching out to new people and turning them into friends or contacts. We delve into how we can view new faces as interesting people and opportunities for growth. I share experiences where I did something uncomfortable, which resulted in forming deeper connections with others. We will also discuss how individuals can use a 'how can I help?' mindset to build connections. Moreover, I explain how viewing conflict as positive can be beneficial to creating new relationships. Through personal anecdotes and insights, I emphasize the importance of taking action, challenging personal mindsets, and helping others to facilitate transformation and personal growth.
