　　As far as I know, no computer or technology ever got any of us a raise, landed us that dream job, or put that special joy in our lives that can only come from relationships with others. All these great things are made possible by a 31 different type of networking: human networking. And not the kind that has given "networking"a bad 32 —that superficial, insincere stuff. No, I’m talking about the true art of networking, based 33 respectful and caring rela-tionships that 34 mutual success. For each and every thing you want to 35 in life, a raise, a love, a job —there will be at least one person on the other end deciding 36 to give you or help you get what you want. Everything we do can only be accom-plished 37 and with other people. Simply put, success, of any kind, 38 relationships. Just think of the 39 of Mar-garet Wheatley, "Relationships are all there is. Nothing ex-ists in 40 . We have to stop pretending that we can make it 41 ."
　　The most common 42 people make when building re-lationships for their 43 success is treating business con-tacts differently from personal friends. Aren’t your col-leagues always more helpful when you’re in need? I 44 your work will become easier and more joyful if you make 45 of your business relationships personal. How to do it? The same way you make 46 friends. Build trust through intimacy; show them that 47 being professional, you’re also human. 48 the small talk and go deep into what really matters —your dreams or fears, your children or the business issues that keep you 49 at night. I don’t think for a 50 that they’ll think anything less of you. In fact, usually the opposite happens.
