I just saw a great TED talk video that inspired me to work harder at networking etc. Since I am an introvert that is prone to depression especially when facing issues like finding a new job etc. (that I'm going to be doing starting tomorrow)

I think it’s great to have a network of reliable people you can turn to. It does wonders for the mind and heart.

I dated someone who used to meet with a different person each week for a meal, coffee, or drinks. He was very intentional about his circle. He’d read something that challenged him to step up his communication. Needless to say, he always had something to do.

I’m doing the same this year. I’ve joined groups and organizations with weekly meetings and social events. I take classes and picked up a new hobby for similar reasons. I want to widen my pod.

You’ll benefit from the effort. Challenges like job searches are made easier when you have a lot of contacts.

Good luck and may God give you favor and lead you to the right place. :)
