It's not the number of contacts you cultivate but the diversity and depth of connections that leverage your opportunity to use best talents more often to accomplish more.

We tend to like each other better when walking, sitting or standing side by side or at right angles from each other.

Bring out others’ better side and they are more likely to see and support yours.

Best way to gain greater credibility, clout and success: involve unexpected allies, ardently united around something specific that you all believe is meaningful.

• The stronger the signal you send yourself of your highest purpose, the more likely you are to notice ways to serve it• Your specificity boosts your clarity, credibility and memorability. • The specific detail proves the general conclusion, not the reverse yet we are most likely to write and speak first in generalizations.• Your focus on interconnectedness increases your frequency of serendipitous encounters, unexpected insights and deeper friendships.
