Summary
It’s the great paradox of the digital age, what Radha Agrawal calls “community confusion” - the Internet connects us to hundreds, thousands, even millions of people, and yet we feel more isolated than ever, with one in four Americans saying they have zero friends to confide in. Where are our people? The answer is found in Belong, a highly energetic guide to discovering where and with whom you fit.
After suffering her own bout of community confusion, Agrawal embarked on a journey that ultimately resulted in cofounding Daybreaker, a transformative phenomenon where thousands of people get up at the crack of dawn, meet in event spaces in 22 cities around the world, and dance. Now she’s distilled her experience for finding meaningful connections into a two-step process.
The first step is going in. This includes determining what we want in a friend and community and what we offer, becoming intentional about our relationships, gauging the type of energy we emit and respond to, and understanding how we do - or don’t - show up for others. Then comes going out - how to find a few special friends who feed our soul; or how to find a fully engaged group with similar business, artistic, and social aims; or both.
Connectedness is the most significant factor in human happiness - Belong is a creative blueprint for bringing this most important dimension back into our lives.

Enlightening...
I discovered Radha after her slot on Jim Kwiks podcast. The main thing I've taken from the book is her idea of DOSE and how to change your life with making sure you get your DOSE every day.

We are tribal animal
Book Review
Belong by Radha Agrawal
Radha believes we are tribal animal and can only flourish within Community where we truly belong, despite our need for authentic community many of us no longer experience it. Radha is committed to proving this and ensuring that we all succeed at building our community.
Radha is fast, fluid and transient, changing right before our eyes as we read this book. Her vibe and energy is youthful, exuberant and optimistic.
Belong is the cookbook, the Idiot’s guide, manual, bible for how to be purposeful with a capital ‘P’ in building a community, finding our tribe that will nourish and nurture our existence. It destroys the notion that relationships just happens, that we stumble into it or it stumbles into us. we are to be intentional in formulating our community and she shows us how to.
I love Radha, I love this book, I like the mission, I like the way Radha gives confidence and hope to the socially awkward. She also left us with no false impression that this is something that will just fall on how laps. Finding and building our community like any worthwhile endeavour involves work, it takes time, involves effort and requires patience but the payoff is unquantifiable, the right community truly brings us into our own.
There is a youthful layout to the book, for me that adds to the charm, it’s easy, it’s gentle but it delivers. Well done Radha for a beautifully written book!

Hippy dippy
The book is motivating in a way that it showed me I am not alone in feeling that I don’t belong and that it is never to late to build your community, but the second part of the book is a little bit annoying and sounds like hippy dippy overexcited child who is hugging everyone and expecting them to like it. Overall book is 3 fro me.

Love
I love this book. It is enlightening to new ways of creating community.
Just dont go onto her social media feed which then seems to contradict what she says in her book. Then again, id still probably re-listen to this again & again

A let down - not applicable to most people
The author talks about inclusion and fear of being left out but literally advocates plotting your friends on a graph to decide which ones to exclude from your life. This book seems to be for people for have at least 100 friends already and who are living in a metropolitan city where there is an unlimited variety of people and interests. If this is not you then this book is unlikely to resonate. The 2 stars are for the authors enthusiasm and positive attitude which may be helpful. The core message is to be proactive and mindful when starting and developing your relationships which is a great message- just let down by the above.
