Six degrees of separation describes the small world phenomenon. The idea is that we are an average of six people away from each person we would like to meet. That means everyone you encounter has the potential to be the gateway to someone else that aids you in your journey. Consider it as a series of networks.

Networking is a powerful way to operate and is just as much about helping others as it is about helping yourself.

Many people think they can judge someone’s usefulness upon the first encounter. But, you never know what kind of challenges or opportunities may be presented to you in life, that people you have encountered will play an instrumental role.

Many of life’s advancements involve people you know. When you connect with the right people, it will be easier to get to the places you are trying to go.
