A Relationship Game.

The culture in Western part of the globe is totally different compared to the one in Asian countries. The approach are totally opposite in nature. The Western approach is more direct and evasive while the Asian approach is more of relationship building and trust.

In any business there must be trust. Trust is not build over night but years. We have to do a lot of homework and follow-up in order to gain the trust. Trust is build over a time frame and it also can be easily broken. Every step we take must be precise. The trust instilled will be snow-balled to another party and that is the beauty of trust. If we are honest to someone, that someone will introduce to us another party. In this case, our network will grow.

Sincerity is very important. We must not cheat people or gain advantage of others. People are very smart today and if we take advantage of them they will cut us and worst, they will inform others. This will jeopardize our good name. It is always important to be clear. People might not accept our point but with persistence we will surely get there.

Keep the mood going and never sulk. You won't know what might be at the other end of the tunnel. There might be love and also feelings. We should never give up just because of a small glitch or rejection. The concept is same to knowing a person for the first time. You need to get in touch with that person. We can try by having small chats and little ideas and slowly when you feel that the relationship is forming you just give your all. But be honest.

We must find out the reasons why things don't go our way. It is like finding a hidden puzzle. The more clues we have in our mind the better we will solve the problem. People today are very dynamic so we have to adept to the situation in an appropriate manner. We must be well verse with the current issues so that we are able to understand the other party what they are narrating. Try reading a lot especially current issues.

I believe if we treat people well they will in turn treat us well. Never climb over people's head. It is not advisable and it is rude and dominating. Respect the elders because they are the gold of the age and they are wise. You can learn a lot of things from them and trust me you will learn lots where you are unable to get from someone at a fairly young age.

It is good to be knowledgeable but knowledge can only bring us to a certain stage. We must be interpersonal smart. If we can't strike a simple conversation we are total failures. Trust me there are times you just can't speak let alone express yourselves and that is frustrating. You have all the phrases formed in your head but it doesn't come out. That is why you can be the brilliant kid but if you don't have interpersonal skills, you are no better than an average Joe. You are zero if you don't have respect let alone manners because you just can't work out.

Keep building on your knowledge but at the same time get to know more people. You will surely have difficulty knowing people. You must build that bond and it takes time and work to be able to form them. The trick is to take it easy and not to pressure yourself. The best thing works when you are cool. The flow will come when we are calm. I know many people who are good speakers and relationship builders who are cool and confident. It takes lots of practice and care. The result will surely come.
