003 Extend your Network

Are you struggling to establish yourself in a new country or city? Do you find it hard to build a network of friends and professionals around you?  In this episode of Wabi Sabi, Laurence, and Jim discuss the importance of networking and how it can help you in your personal and professional life. Jim shares his experience of moving to a new country and how he was able to build a network of friends and clients through his involvement in the local cricket team. He stresses the importance of having pure intention when networking and not using it as a means to an end. Laurence talks about his struggles of establishing himself in different parts of Australia and how it was comparatively harder to build a network in a city than in a country town. He emphasizes the importance of doing the right things and building relationships without a specific objective in mind. Jim and Laurence highlight that networking is not just relevant to business but also life principles. They suggest disciplining yourself to say yes to invitations and getting involved in the community to build lasting relationships. If you're looking to expand your network and establish connections in a new place, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to Wabi Sabi for more insights on personal and professional growth.
