Management guru Drucker said: "Cleaning up your network is like cleaning your wardrobe, clearing out the unsuitable clothes out of the closet in order to bring more new clothes into the wardrobe." "Each of us has a limited amount of energy, and we can't spend all our time on networking.

It's not hard to see some people who are busy socializing all day long, and they are saying something insincere at the wine table. When you look closely, you will suddenly realize that these people are some friends who drink and meat, and everyone is only together to use each other, or to relieve boredom. But in fact, these meaningless socializations should be pushed forward, and friends who are meaningless to us should be eliminated.

It's not like the more people you have, it's like we read books, the more good books you read, the faster you improve. The more good connections you have, the more benign your functioning will be.

Among the contacts, there are not only elites, mentors, and good friends, but also bad friends. In daily interactions, the inferiority of these people will slowly become apparent. There may be people who are greedy for merit and profit, some people who are corrupt, and so on. Once there are too many weeds in the network, then we will inevitably have to deal with these bad people, which is not only a waste of energy, but also has the potential to completely mess up your business. So, learn to find the weeds in your network and make sure your network is fully functional.

In almost any organization, we will meet a few very difficult people to serve, and they seem to exist to make things worse and make themselves stink. And what's worse is that they're like rotten apples in a fruit box, and if you don't deal with them or throw them away, they can quickly spread and spoil other good apples as well.

For these people, they don't want to help anyone at all, and their existence will always do more harm than good. Such people are the weeds in your network, and if you have people around you who make a living by cheating, then you don't have to think about it, and quickly remove them from your friend roster.

In addition, it is also necessary to consider whether you can clear your network of friends from the following types of friends, so as to free you from busy social interactions.

(1) People who do not have a common language with you at all

Each of us has our own lives, and if the life pursued by a friend is incompatible with the life you are pursuing, and you don't have a colleague or peer relationship right now, there is almost no thing that holds you together. Then, for such friends, you actually have no need to continue dating.

(2) People who look down on you

In life, there are always some people who think that their status or conditions are better than yours, and they are not willing to associate with you. For such people, they will only turn back on you after you have developed. But in fact, they can't help you, and you have to be careful if you cooperate with them, but you have to be careful if there is a danger of being calculated.

(3) People who are completely dependent on and exploit you

Although none of us want to admit it, in fact, those who are completely dependent on you, such as borrowing from you as soon as they run out of money at the end of the month, but they have borrowed but have not repaid; The house is about to be moved when it expires, and the people who call you all the way over just to save 200 yuan in moving expenses, but then they don't say anything to you, you may really not want to have anything to do with them anymore from the bottom of your heart, but because you can't find a reason, you are very helpless.

(4) A person who leaves after using it

This kind of person will talk sweetly when they need you, and once they have achieved their personal goals, they will turn their faces and be ruthless. Such people don't care about their previous gains and losses, and quickly kick them out of your network.
