Networking

Never underestimate the power of networking. I've been fortunate to attend two very different, but equally important networking events recently. One was to distribute bags of material from various businesses to local moms. The other was more of a traditional networking meeting, where individuals presented their businesses to others within a 2 minute time span.

Both events provided a valuable opportunity to not only present my business as a Savings Educator, but to also think about how I present myself. I write this to remind everyone that we're constantly networking, whether we realize it or not. When we meet teachers, day care providers, church members, strangers that we pass on the sidewalk, or our neighbors. Every situation is an opportunity to make a positive impression on another's life. Never overlook how your life can effect another's. Be a positive change and make a positive difference. Smile. It may be just what's missing from someone's life.
