Here is a little exerpt from my latest blog post:

> The only way to find out what works for you is to get to know the people within those groups, but it is not always easy to find a way in. If you can establish a connection and do find yourself included in a certain group of people it is then up to you to determine your needs. If you walk into a group of popular people who want to start a small business but never seem to get around to it, this will hold you back if your goal is to start a small business. Being popular does not always lead to success if some of the elements such as motivation and sharing are missing.

When you network make sure you have a well rounded selection of people to network with.
