36. Commit ?Acts of Deliberate Relationship Enhancement?

As boss of Goldman Sachs, Hank Paulson religiously called ?60 CEOs in the first week [of the year] to wish them happy New Year.? It was at some level a ?trick? or ?tactic.? But I, who have a similar ritual, find it to be the greatest of pleasures as well.

I call these sorts of purposeful activities ?ADREs.? Or: Acts of Deliberate Relationship Enhancement.

Action: Call (C-A-L-L!) (NOT EMAIL!) 25-50 people ? IN THE NEXT FIVE DAYS ? to thank them for their support in the last 90 days or six months!
