Contributed by Jay Clouse Unreal Collective | Columbus, OH I receive Jay’s daily email. We were in altMBA12 together. There’s been a connection since we first met this summer. Today’s post was perfect and articulates perfectly how I have approached networking. I hope you enjoy this guest post from a fellow Seth Godin fan. Originally […]
Whatever you do, however small it might seem… Realize this — it is making a difference. It doesn’t have to be everything. It’s ok if you think it’s nothing. Whether you know it or not, it will be something. The only thing that is “nothing…” Is nothing
