Does the name “Keith Ferrazzi” ring a bell to you? He has been called “one of most connected people in the world” by Forbes and Inc. because of his ability when it comes to communication and his people skills.

Read on, get to know about Keith Ferrazzi's key to success, and live a life of fullness!

Keith Ferrazzi is a man who draws the attention of everyone without any effort. Many people tend to think that his success and good reputation derive from his inborn people skills. The truth is it requires hard work and constant self-development.

Keith Ferrazzi’s pieces of advice will help you become an excellent people person:

- “It’s better to give before you receive. And never keep score. If your interactions are ruled by generosity, your rewards will follow suit.”

Give rather than take. Ferrazzi bases his success on making other people happy, on working hard to devote his life to the people around him. By doing this, you will build a circle of people willing to help, support, and give advice to you; just as you do with them.

- “Connecting is a constant process of asking for and offering help.”

Most people are embarrassed and feel uncomfortable about asking questions or calling for help. But what can happen if you do so? If the worst comes to the worst, you will just have a “no” for an answer! However, a stranger is more likely to respond positively to a request than you think. Try it and see for yourself!

- “Who you know determines who you are — how you feel, how you act, and what you achieve”

We cannot cover everything. It is exhausting and almost impossible to pile up every single business card we are given and to attend every single meeting and seminar of different companies. We have to be ready to choose our social circle deliberately.

- “Creativity in business is often nothing more than making connections that everyone else has almost thought of”

Think outside the box when it comes to meeting people. Online meetings are becoming increasingly frequent nowadays and they can be as effective as the traditional ones.

- “Ditch your milquetoast posts and say something that matters”

Think positively when having to speak with a stranger for the first time. Try to create a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere without getting too much into small talk, and lead the conversation to the main point nicely.

- “Creating an enriching circle of trusted relationships requires one to be out there, in the mix, all the time”

Take advantage of informal meetings, such as the lunchtime breaks. By sharing them with people, you will foster communication and create stronger bonds. It is very important to take care of our relationships and to often be in view; this way, you will arouse the people's interest in you.

Values such as love and knowledge strengthen when shared. Or as Keith Ferrazzi put it: “By giving your time and expertise and sharing them freely, the pie gets bigger for everyone”.
