Appreciate the Perfect Contacts that You Have
Let your perfect contacts know that they are your perfect contacts. Be specific in describing what they provide for you and how they do so. Find unique ways to show your appreciation that “fit” the way in which they are perfect contacts for you. Be spontaneous and unpredictable! For example, one of my “bounce ideas off of” supporters is a musician. I heard about an inexpensive conductor’s workshop and simply forwarded the email. She went and had a great time. It reinforced the reciprocity in our relationship, making it more powerful. How do you appreciate your perfect contacts?

Recognize Less-than-Perfect Contacts
When you meet someone and experience discomfort, recognize a less-than-perfect contact. Don’t promise to be in touch; set a boundary that lets them know that now is not the right time for you to collaborate. You may appear to lose in the short-term, however, negative energy is wasted energy and it multiplies just like positive energy. Set a boundary and don’t “settle for less”. This is a power move. In the long-term, you’ll reap huge rewards. Say, “No” and have the courage to succeed beyond your wildest dreams.
