The truth is, it's the essence of how I always teach networking by being of service, being fully present, having a mindset and intention of helping others, listening without attachment to the outcome and letting go of worrying about what brilliant thing you'll say next.  The fun thing is, Gary invited me to this interview through online networking on the New Coach Connection list serve... see, it really IS all about connecting with others!

Mind-set shift helps 'solopreneurs' find success
By Jim Kendall | Columnist

Linette George walks into a room of strangers and sees the people gathered there as different countries. She's at a networking event - and ready to go.

George, "passionate about travel and learning about different cultures," and "not scared about meeting strangers" in a foreign land, has learned to equate a networking event where she initially knows no one to travel where she initially knows no one.

Strange? A little. But the shift in George's approach, a mind-set change, has made meeting new business people easier.

Connection is a gift that keeps on giving. 

I am so amazed to share the following interview with you because of how easily I was "discovered" by Josh Hinds of Business Networking Advice.  Yep, networking was the impetus!  I ran a Google ad that showed up on someone's site.  He checked me out and introduced me to Josh. 

Josh has a passion for interviewing experts on networking, whether online through social networking or offline, so to speak, the old fashioned face-to-face way.  He asked me to take part in this short interview and Voila!  Check it out.
