This is where "networking" gets a bad reputation: you introduce yourself to someone new for only one purpose--you need them for a job, an investment, or a sale. Short-term networking makes you look desperate.
Try to follow this rule: no 'asks' for a year. For example, let's say you meet a person who is well-known in the field in which you want to build a career. In your first email exchanges or conversations, you should avoid making an ask of any kind. Sometimes, in the short term, aggressive maneuvers work: people fold and say yes in the moment. But in the long run, it never does.

The best networkers think long-term. You can start building long-term relationships by identifying people in your field who are doing cool things or whose work you admire.
You don't have a specific ask in mind: all you know is that this person is worth getting to know.

Only the most masterful networkers engage in this type of relationship. Infinite horizon networking is building relationships with people whose expertise seems irrelevant to you today.
On the surface and in the short term, they might not be useful to you at all. But they're interesting. And the fact that they are not plugged into your usual channels actually means they have the potential of becoming your most transformative relationship because they are exposing you to new ideas, people, and opportunities.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
