My vision for this blog was dialogue — an open forum, free flow laboratory for all of us to think about and share ideas. Over the last few months we’ve turned the corner from monologue to you and what’s on your mind… this week, Dubai-based oilman Urban Showe sent me this worthy thought…
Jeff,
Just watched a movie called Single Moms Club and there was a great message there that many may have missed….
The power of asking for help…
The word SINGLE means just that; no help…by yourself…
But add the word CLUB and help appears!
In the movie, a group of women from different walks of life find a way to help one another.
Networking has many forms of help, but most people don’t know how to ask for, or use, the help they have available to them. Jeff, I remember what you said when I first saw you speak,
“The power of one relationship can change your life and you never know who that person is going to be…you are one introduction away from the single most important person you’ll ever meet and who knows…you may have already met them…”
The question is how do you get there? Ask for help.
-Urban

P.S.: Mr. Showe is no stranger to exploring the power of relationships. In fact, I featured him in my last book Everybody Sells. Click HERE to read his story excerpt.
