Published: Dec. 7, 2020, 12:07 a.m.

We can’t get along without people, but in business this is especially true. In this show, John Paul tells you why it’s crucial to surround yourself with the right people, how they can help you, and why your network really might be your net worth.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   It’s not enough to surround yourself with people. When it comes to business you need people who share your goals, vision and purpose. The best kinds of people for your network are the ones who pick you up when you fall, and who inspire you to do better. Put yourself in rooms that matter. Online forums and real life events are a good place to meet the right people. Try to attract people who share your beliefs, and make sure you offer something in return.   BEST MOMENTS   ‘They serve your purpose. They have the same goals’ ‘You want people who will lift you and pull you up’ ‘You’ll soon find out who the right one is for you. Push each other forward’ ‘There’s enough work and business out there for everyone’   ABOUT THE HOST   John Paul Reilly is dyslexic business man who left school just before his 16th birthday, barely able to read and write, to the point that at exam time one of the teachers had to read the questions out to him (and then write down his answers).   Written off, like most kids who struggled at school, and being told by his woodwork teacher he was “nothing, and would amount to nothing” he now runs a multi award-winning company in the construction industry .   A loud but shy person who knew he wanted to achieve great things with no clue what business he wanted to do but knew that’s what he wanted. With his first business started at age 14, to now, he has learned most things the hard way.   Now the owner of multiple business with one being multi award winning, John Paul has been in business over many years sharing what he has learned over this time mainly the hard way.   CONTACT METHOD   LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-paul-reilly-29896556/?originalSubdomain=uk Facebook - https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-paul-reilly-29896556/?originalSubdomain=uk   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
