the New York Times

I was reading an article on the New York Times. The article was about the CEO of the World Bank has been recruited by the Citigroup. I started to think who I am. This CEO is on the newspaper and going to be in charge of the branch in the Citigroup. I started to think it is about the connection. He was introduced to the CEO of the Citigroup by the common friend. Once you are in the community, you are in. The problem is how you are going to get into the community. You need to be good at something. “What am I good at?”

Yes, I agree. Success is usually about networking or getting into the community. A wise man once said, "It's not what you know. It's who you know". One who networks is more likely to get a good position than one who knows no one. It's funny that if two equally qualified candidates are competing for the same position it is usually the one who had a good word put in who will get the job.
