Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen. – Winston Churchill

Do you trim your network occasionally?

Jim Connolly wrote a good post on what your network says about you.

Trust and credibility can either be destroyed or boosted in seconds, depending on the individuals and companies we are aligned with or associate with
via What do your contacts say about you?

I think of my linkedIn list as a list of people I know well enough to introduce as “one of the good ones” to other people. If I have not talked to someone for a long time can I still do that? People do change.

Should social links have a half-life or do we just keep accumulating more and more as we move from project to project, job to job, industry to industry?

Un-friending or un-linking people is a socially awkward thing to do.

What do you think?

I have been fortunate to meet and work with many great teachers from many cultures and walks of life.


They have shared their stories generously and showed me that there is always more to learn if you are open to having your world view challenged.


This blog is my ways of paying it forward.
