Self-assessment! It certainly does pay to associate and network with in the right circle of people, but you need to self-assess to get out of that shadow! Learning includes learning about yourself - ask your closest friends and family for constructive feedback - read self-improvement books and articles and blogs!!! Learning also includes listening and watching for responses - the easiest way to know how to “make sure your wit is drawing attention and not your obnoxious behavior” is to gauge the types of responses you’re receiving. The giveaway is when people do the forced laughter then walk-away!

I guess you true you pick up attributes of those you spend time with, but eventually of course you’ll have to stand on your own 2 feet-just hanging out with someone is obvuisly not going to make youo successful.

A great place to know someone is a social clubs There’s is a social club here in Toronto called the Granite Club, where they have all sorts of gatherings, sports to dining, and recreation to just plain chatting. It’s a bit of an expense but here, its a very good opportunity to know some of the very big people in Toronto. If you can’t find a social club, parties are always another place of opportunity to network and associate yourself.

Network is very important. Having those connections will really come in handy for those situations where you just can’t pull it off yourself. Standing out is very important as well and to get discovered, networking and assosiation is what you need to get noticed. The tips can be applied to everyone, I mean.. start early, get popular in high school, get to know everyone around you, cause you never know, chances are, there can be a few that make it big in their lifetimes.
