Try to take before you give.

還沒付出就想有回報。

The goalof networking is to connect with people who can help you make a sale, get areferral, establish a contact, etc. When we network, we want something.

建立人際網絡的目的在于與人聯系，希望未來在銷售、引薦、聯系等需要的時候派上用場。總而言之，當我們建立人際網絡時，都想從中得到點什么。

But at first, never ask for what you want. In fact you may never ask for what you want. Forget about what you can get and focus on what you can provide. Giving is the only way to establish a real connection and relationship. Focus solel yon what you can get out of the connection and you will never make meaningful,mutually beneficial connections.

但是注意不要一開始就索取你想要的。事實上最好永遠也別這么做。把想要的東西忘記，著重于你所能提供的。給予是建立良好關系的唯一途徑。 如果一心只想索取，那么永遠也不可能能建立起真正有利并且互惠的關系。

When you network, it's all about them, not you。

與人交往時，他們才是主角。
