SL12: How to Build Your Tribe for Success

Ever notice how the most successful people seem to know everybody?

I was at an oil and gas industry event this week, shaking hands with over 50 high-achievers.

Dozens of conversations, big ideas flying around, and it all boiled down to one truth: your network is your net worth.

It's not just a catchy phrase, it's real.

Your connections can unlock wealth, health, and opportunities you didn't even know existed.

But here's the thing: successful people don't just stumble into these networks.

They build them.

And you can too.

Let me show you how to start creating your own circle of winners today.

First, get clear on what you want.

More money?

A fitter body?

A calmer mind?

Write it down.

Be specific.

If it's money, how much, and by when?

If it's fitness, what does fit look like for you?

Clarity's your starting line.

Next, think of three people you know, friends, acquaintances, or even a friend of a friend, who're closer to that goal than you are.

Maybe it's a colleague who started a side hustle, or a cousin who's into meditation.

Check your phone contacts, ask your partner, or dig through your mental Rolodex.

There's always someone who's a step or two ahead.

Now, reach out.

Send a text, an email, or call them.

Invite them for coffee, a walk, or a quick Zoom if they're far.

Keep it simple, just aim to connect.

When you meet, show up curious.

Ask about their journey.

Try questions like:

"What's a book you're loving right now?"

"What helped you get started?"

"Can I join you next time you hit the gym or go hiking?"

People love sharing their story.

Listen, learn, and follow up.

One good conversation can shift your trajectory.

My life changed when I started doing this a year ago.

Those chats turned into mentorships, partnerships, and habits that got me results.

If you can't find the right person, invest in one.

Coaches, trainers, paid communities, they're out there, ready to help you level up.

Take one step today.

Write your goal, list three names, and make one call.

Your future self'll thank you.

Yours,

Diego
