When it comes to getting ahead, we have all heard it said that "It's not about what you know, but who you know". I beg to differ. I don't think it is really about who or what you know, but rather who wants to know you! Anybody can say they know important and influential people. But what if these important and influential people wanted to get to know you. What if the president of your company, whom you never see or have met, wanted to get your thoughts on the company's 2010 strategies. What if instead of reading Oprah's book, she wanted to read yours. What if the people you highly respect and look up to in your line of work, all wanted to get to know you? Now, that would be saying something. That would say you are making such an impact that they feel a need to connect with you. It says that they have recognized your value and you are someone they respect and find interest. So don't work so hard on trying to meet great influencial people. Just be great and watch the influencial people come up to meet you!
