My Golden Rule Of Networking Is Simple:

Anyone Who Has Been In Business Can Tell War Stories About The Bumps In The Road. But If They've Outlasted The Competition, Ask For Their Stories About Survival. They've Figured Out How To Turn Disappointments Into Opportunities.

Good Intentions Aren't Enough. People Have Good Intentions When They Set A Goal To Do Something, But Then They Miss A Deadline Or Other Milestone.

Deadlines Aren't Bad. They Help You Organize Your Time. They Help You Set Priorities. They Make You Get Going When You Might Not Feel Like It.

People Begin To Become Successful The Minute They Decide To Be.

Anyone Too Busy To Say Thank You Will Get Fewer And Fewer Chances To Say It.
