A little silliness simply because it’s Monday.
What if Oscar Wilde had to go to a Chamber of Commerce meeting for networking in business? Would he get all nervous and want to run?
Nah. I’m thinking he wouldn’t stress. After all, he’s the one who said “Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.”
But as for me, and possibly for you, it’s stressful. Any new thing, whether it’s a new event, an interview, or a project, can be hard.
It’s the hard stuff that we’re here to help you with. This hard stuff can make networking in business a really special force in your life.
If you haven’t already done so, I encourage you to do a couple of things.
Thing #1: Listen to the interview with Jon White about getting the right mindset for networking in business. I’ll introduce you to Jon, a guy just like you and me, who is building a remarkable business through networking.
Update: I attended an event hosted by Jon last week, and even the speaker, who is nationally recognized as a skilled networker, said he wished he knew how Jon does it. Well, listen to the recording and you soon will know just what he does!
Thing #2: Become a fan on Facebook, and hang out with others who are networking just like you are.
In the next couple of weeks I have some very cool things in store for you… including an interview with a real live Chamber of Commerce staff person full of advice… so be sure you subscribe to our feed or check back.
Make the most of every connection!
