No matter how smart and talented we are, we can’t be the best at everything. It’s just not possible. But thankfully, we don’t have to be. We just need to know other people who are ready and willing to fill in the gaps. If we fortify those relationships, we can create an unstoppable synergy that withstands adversity.

Invest in others before you ask them to invest in you. It is harder to make a withdrawal if you haven’t been making regular deposits.

Sometimes it’s easier to reach out to people who have more in common with us. Don’t give in to that tendency. Stretch to make connections with people who can bring a diversity of thoughts and skills to your resource network. That will amplify your potential, no matter what direction the NASDAQ is heading.
