Make Your Intentions Clear
- Once you've gotten to know someone well enough to make an ask, it's essential to be clear upfront about what it is, and what's actually going on.
- Sneak favor attacks are common.
- Well-intentioned professionals simply don't have a sense of how to appropriately ask for what they want.
- They'll often try to disguise their intentions, leading to misunderstandings and ill will.

The Art Of Helping And Giving First
The mantra about networking: Be helpful! Add value!
But it’s often hard to know where to start, especially if the person is already successful.
One needs to research and find a way to help the person in a field in which they may not be experts.
Example: If someone is a blogger or a writer, he may need some expertise in podcasting.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

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!

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!
