I was having the same issues. As always, great advice for getting through those rough patches. 'Doing' seems to be the cure for not wanting to.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the reference in yesterday's post. I like the idea of asking people about their competitors. I might have to try that. Another good tool to do a quick integrity check.<BR/><BR/>Happy networking!Scott Ingramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10563243362643263876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11195787.post-1128592943618810342005-10-06T05:02:00.000-05:002005-10-06T05:02:00.000-05:00Obviously I'm doing something wrong, because it's ...Obviously I'm doing something wrong, because it's 2:50 a.m. PDT and I've been up since 5:30 a.m. - yesterday - and I'm reading about your desire to take a client kayaking when, in fact, I live in front of the bay that I have NOT kayaked in since 2003! I think it's time to call it a night and put my client files away! <BR/><BR/>For a more appropriate comment, you're right about networking when you don't feel up to it. I've put networking on hold for the past year while going through a corporate "transition" and my new business has suffered drastically. I also find when I shy away from socializing to bring in new business, I tend to isolate myself from existing clients because I focus too much on the corp. transition problems instead of putting my energy into my client base where it will generate more business.<BR/><BR/>Congrats on the book. Glad to see someone from the old neighborhood in print!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
