If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.
Community is everything.
You can have the best idea in the world, but if you don't have the support of a community, it will be difficult to bring that idea to life.
Your community is there to:
1. Support you during tough times
2. Celebrate with you during good times
3. Provide feedback and ideas
4. Connect you with resources and opportunities
5. Hold you accountable
Building a community takes time and effort, but it is one of the most valuable things you can do.
So, how do you build a community?
1. Be genuine - people can tell if you are not being authentic
2. Provide value - offer something of value to your community
3. Listen - pay attention to the needs and wants of your community
4. Connect - introduce people to each other and help them make connections
5. Give - be willing to give more than you receive
Remember, a community can be made up of friends, family, colleagues, and peers. It can be local or global. What's most important is that you are surrounded by people who care about you and want to see you succeed.
