Be a nexus of energy:

‍

Be a nexus of energy.

‍

Heard that this week at a conference.

‍

Was chatting with some investors and someone said that about person I know.

‍

‘He’s like a nexus of energy in San Francisco.’

‍

Right after that, someone made the same comment about me.

‍

It was such a nice compliment.

‍

But I’ve seen my fair share of people like that.

‍

They’re always moving.

‍

Energetic.

‍

Positive.

‍

Lots of things going on around them.

‍

Fun.

‍

Love chatting with people.

‍

Super interested in other folks.

‍

Be one of those people.

‍

Bring positivity.

‍

Bring energy.

‍

Bring something different.

‍

Be interested in others.

‍

Be curious.

‍

Ask questions.

‍

See how you can help them.

‍

Be a connector.

‍

We need more of those people.

‍

People like Clarence Avant.

‍

Go watch ‘The Black Godfather.’

‍

He’s a name more people should know.

‍

He was the ultimate connector.

‍

He moved between so many worlds.

‍

Always connecting people.

‍

Bringing cool people together because he thought they could create something great.

‍

And they did.

‍

We need more of those.

‍

Offer to help someone.

‍

When they ask, come through.

‍

Stay true to your word.

‍

Do what you’re saying you're going to do.

‍

Take initiative.

‍

Most people don’t.

‍

When you do, amazing things can happen.

‍

Your reputation improves.

‍

People want to meet you.

‍

People want to be around you.

‍

People want to help you.

‍

Plus it’s more fun.

‍

You get to build more relationships with more people.

‍

Be one of those for people in your life.

‍

Be a nexus of energy.
