“It isn’t just what you know, and it isn’t just who you know. It’s actually who you know, who knows you, and what you do for a living.”

In this guest article, Alpesh Shah discusses a fascinating study that shows how most people acquire their jobs – via their networks. He then discusses how he applied this to his life, and provides tips you can use to nurture your own professional network.
I had an interesting discussion with a friend recently about how even people with great interpersonal skills may struggle with speaking in public. As someone who was once relatively shy, and now speaks on panels and to large groups, I felt it would be useful to share some of the strategies I personally used.
In this article I discuss five steps I took to increase my own public speaking abilities, and also discuss how I overcame my stage fright.
For years ago I have collected quotes that have in some way affected me and changed my life. I collect them in random places – a professor opening a lecture with one, books and those irritating spam forwards from friends. I have literally kept some scraps for years in physical folders – clipping from magazines and printed copies.
I have now realized that six months have gone by, and due to my hardly using quotes in my writing, I have not shared many of these inspirational quotes about life. I do not know when the right time will be for many of my favorite quotes. If I find an appropriate article I will reuse the quotes to illustrate a apoint – but even if I can’t, I still want to share them, else I do a great disservice to you, my readers.
Enjoy, and there will be more to come, perhaps once every couple weeks.
