It is a truth that nobody can achieve something significant alone. Lonely heroes only exist in Hollywood movies and it’s just a myth. People, in general, are brilliant, some in their ideas, others in their talents, in their capacities and strengths but no one can say that they know everything or can do everything. Success is designed to be achieved by a group of people. Do you want to achieve something significant in your life?
If so, you need to relate and work well with people. Beyond having a mutual vision and the desire to achieve a goal, a relationship with others is what allows you to achieve team success. Connecting well with others will take you to a much higher level of achievement.
If you look around you, we all belong to teams. A family is a team, as well as small or large businesses. If you look at those who have achieved great successes none of them did it alone. Although recognition is usually for an individual, the study of their achievements will let us see that there is a group of people behind their success.
What is your attitude towards relating positively to others?
I imagine you know some people who are that “people person” which is the great ability to relate to others. They are always charming and when they arrive at meetings they are the ones who initiate conversations with everyone.
You also might know some people who lack this talent. Somehow it seems that they do not want to relate to others. Some reasons can be:
- Maybe they grew up in families where they did not have the example of positive relationships.
- Other may have been hurt and see others through this filter.
- Some, unfortunately, have enough ego and think they can do it all by themselves.
A healthy relationship with others is essential to building successful relationships. This is the beginning of every family, organization, business, or association. If this is not your best strength, the good news is that you can develop this skill and improve your chances of success.
How can you achieve successful relationships?
The first step is to understand that the ability to relate well to others is the difference between those who achieve success and those who do not.
Today, when making an inventory between my failures and my victories, I can conclude that having successful relationships has been what has allowed me to harvest triumphs in all areas of my life; for which I am very grateful. None of those successes have happened with just my individual effort but thanks to a team effort.
Understanding this first step will allow you to increase the desire to grow in this area. Moreover, recognize the impact you are making on your teams and their productivity for it will give you enough motivation to increase your ability to relate positively to others.
