I was stuck before
I met with Ana and

Elena. The focused
and rigorous
consultation got me
back on track.

Connecting

I just read this article, Forget Networking. How to be a Connector, and it resonated with me -- not all the super flattering things they wrote about connectors  (a little self-deprication?) -- but in the way that I feel both Ana and I know a lot of people and are naturally drawn to share the connections. In the article they write "Perhaps one of the most important attributes of a connector is a willingness to help and to reach out even if there is no obvious or immediate payback." I suppose I might differ with the concept that there's no immediate "payback." In fact there is -- there's something extremely rewarding to the heart and soul to make connections between people that you know have the potential to be helpful and useful to one another.
