Very useful advice by Kathryn Minshew about making your own luck through networking:
- "Hand in hand with this philosophy comes another, highly complementary strategy: When you want something, broadcast that to everyone you meet."
- "Always say yes to invitations, even if it's not clear what you'll get out of the meeting"
- "Show up, and often. This should be obvious, but as a busy entrepreneur it's amazing how unappealing it is to socialize with people you don't know when you're working 16-hour days. But everything starts with showing up"
- "Be the person they saw yesterday as often as possible. They will think of you if there is an opportunity the next day"
