I am thankful to a lot of people for making me who I am today. Over the years each of them has left an indelible mark on me & my psyche. I am certain it is the same for you. However answer some of the following questions for yourself: 1. How many people can you call in the middle of the night for assistance/help knowing that they will respond? 2 Does that list grow every year or has it been static for quite a while now? 3. How often do you eat lunch alone? 4. When was the last time you called someone without any favor in mind? I dont mean to start of on a disciplinary note. Just wanted you to start thinking. The title has three important parts: 1. Quality Relationships 2. Significant People 3. All Contexts The following are the thoughts that spring to mind when I think about all three: 1. All contexts? what are the roles you play? I am a son, a brother, a colleague, a boss, a coach, a neighbor, a friend, and maybe some more. Do you have quality relationships in all those areas/roles? I know I dont. 2. what defines significant people? is it people who can help you in your chosen path? are these people who think like you? are these people who you can talk to, seek advice from? Significant people maybe all this and more. define significance for yourself, and then go around seeking people who fit that definition. 3. Quality Relationships. here, allow me to take refuge to steven covey. he says when we introduce someone we know, we generally introduce them by saying how long we have known them. The length of time that a relationship can last/endure seems to be a pretty good way to define quality. Other intense bonds can also be formed over a relatively short period of time. Today, Build high - quality relationships with significant people in all contexts of your life. Cheers! Prabhjot Bedi The Eclat Coach |
