Here’s how to get nearly anything you want.
The other day I told my boyfriend “hey I’m gonna get a speaker slot for ETH Milan last minute”
He said “how???” 😮
I said “pass me the founder’s telegram.”
I texted: “hey it’s Dayana. We were both at Napul ETH. I’d love to MC/ moderate a panel for you too. Here’s my LinkedIn to put a face to the name”
He goes “I know you! Can you do a panel on derivatives?”
Me: “Done.”
Locked in within the hour.
So what’s the lesson here?
1) ASK for what you want.
Don’t assume that people know. They don’t.
Want the job? Apply.
Want the speaking gig? Say something.
**
2) Give massive value**
Wanting things is easy. But why should people care? What’s in it for their project?
Make it obvious. Don’t imagine they know.
Share your ideas, portfolio, resume - don’t expect people to take you for your word.
Do these 2 things and you’ve got a really great shot at getting what you want.😊
What’s something you really want???
