Importance of Maintaining a Good Relationship with People

I believe networking can also be termed as beneficial friendships. It has become an integral part of our lives for survival and also makes our journey through life seamless.

When you’re in trouble, you call your lawyer.

When you get sick, you have your doctor on speed dial.

If you have an issue with your account, you have a banker to call.

If you're looking to make an investment, you have a business enthusiast as a friend.

Looking for a property to buy, you have a real estate agent to buzz.

Looking for a job, you have influential people referring you.

Now, building this network of people doesn't come overnight. A popular Social Media Influencer, Pamilerin Adegoke, stated below that:

Building a strong network starts with us. It starts with maintaining good relationships with our colleagues in school, at work, and at our places of worship. This also extends to establishing contacts with people you meet at outings, tours, concerts, picnics, and on social media, etc.

Keeping a good relationship has more merits than disadvantages. It makes your business easier, as you have all the support you need. It makes your life easier knowing that you have people to reach out to whenever you need a hand with anything.

It's also noteworthy that some people build good relationships with people, but once they leave that environment, i.e school or work, they tend to cut off all forms of communication with the people they met there and they suddenly stop responding to calls and texts.

I'm not here to judge you, I have a major in public administration, not law. Rather, I'm just here to point out the benefits of building a strong network by keeping good relationships with people. There's a saying that "it's better to make more friends than enemies”
