Chapter Six Blast!

We all, at some point, have imagined ourselves enjoying great success and we should! All great things start in the mind. However, our minds sometimes cleverly omit the details associated with acquiring that success. The next time you picture yourself behind the desk of that chic office with that amazing view, also try to visualize a strategy to help you advance. Then, physically make your "power move." One effective way to make a power move is socializing. That's right - professional socializing or networking. Mixing and mingling with different people gives you the opportunity to spotlight your assets and acquire a myriad of resources. Be social savvy and understand that an occasional embarrassing moment or two (if you're like me) is possible, but not detrimental. Remember, there is value in relationship-building and there is power in networking. Now, make your move!
