The Power Of Relationship
*”The best form of begging is selling”*
My long week’s troubles finally came to an end yesterday. Courtesy a very distant friend overseas.
I looked left and right, searched everywhere, went online – I must have prayed too. My worries increased. Until God impressed me to contact a list of friends, partners and associates. Before you get me wrong, I wasn’t out begging for a raise or money. I detest begging. I believe, the best way to beg is to sell❗
*ENG. FEMI ADEDIRAN SHOWED UP*
My list started bringing results, majorly negative. One associate was so reluctant to provide answers. Until Engineer Femi Adediran (www.femiadediran.com) showed up. You know this guy is a great motivator and has continued to bless the world with his writings – if you go to his site – www.femiadediran.com – today you’d return transformed.
He responded to my call, acted as if he was indebted to me, and within a twinkling of an eye, he fixed my challenge.
*STOP MAKING ENEMIES*
It dawned on me, the importance of friends – good friends. I woke up to the realization, that one should stop turning friends enemies, because you may need a www.femiadediran.com in the near future.
*WHO TO MAKE FRIENDS WITH*
– *Parents* should make friends with their children.
– *Spouses* should be friendly to themselves.
– *At your worship centers* , make friends with God and men – stop making life difficult for fellow worshippers.
– *Governments and political leaders* , should be friendly to their citizens and so be careful coming up with averse and deadly policies. Before you demolish homes, make provision for relocation or give sufficient notice. Because one day you’d need your followers, but you’d get their backs. You don’t want to end up an autocratic leader, they don’t end well.
– *Make friends with coworkers* . I have worked under terrible bosses, that till date, mere thoughts of them make my stomach twitch. I recall meeting one of my bosses many years after I resigned. He wanted to know why I kept my distance. I barely told him, he wasn’t a good boss. So my relationship with him ended after my resignation. Stop hurting fellow workers, stop insulting your subordinates. I met a supervisor recently telling a sales rep to *”use her head,”* I saw the displeasure on the reps face – she became downcast.
– *Bad neighbours* having bad neighbours is a death trap. I have had terrible neighbours until now. Make friends with your neighbours. Don’t be one that would force other neighbours to leave because of your unfriendly behavior.
– *Customers relationship.* I have always maintained that an unfriendly person has nothing to do with business, mostly businesses where you must interact with people. Find out more details from my book *BUSINESS KILLERS* available via this link https://wfm.ogapatapata.com/product/business-killers/. Some would insult and threaten their customers. Until they threaten the wrong customers and their businesses packs up.
*THERE ARE FRIENDS BETTER TO BLOOD RELATIVES*
Back to my quest. I didn’t bother to contact any relatives, rather I chose friends and www.femiadediran.com stood out.
My namesake, King Solomon the wisest puts it succinctly;
*”A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: And there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.”* – Pr. 18:24
By now you should be tired of fighting people and making enemies. START MAKING FRIENDS. There’s a chapter in my book, DYNAMISM OF DISCOVERY – that delved on THE POWERS OF RELATIONSHIP AND INTIMACY – grab your ecopy clicking this link – https://wfm.ogapatapata.com/product/dynamism-of-discovery/
