Some people fight to hold on to the ideal that success is found by what you know and do and not by who you know. I can understand. I'm a proud individual often unwilling to admit that my successes have come most commonly from the opportunities or experiences I've had because of who I know. Over the last year I've found success from partners I work with, people I met through Linkedin, and contacts I've made from both of those.
Then I think about how much people I'm close to have impacted my decisions and realize that again my success has been impacted by knowing smart people who give me great advice. People like my father, my brother, Ben Peterson, Ryan Sanders and a whole handful of others. So networking, what is it good for? Absolutely everything!!!
