use it before you publish it

this might sound natural or given but use your softwear, reread your book (independently from your publisher/editor), ride your car before you get it out there. extensively.

of course you should get your product out there to benchmark or regain market shares but in some cases it seems like companies didnt even take the necessary time to test run their new or updated products.

fill the pool to splash water

before you have an argument, acquire knowledge about the topic, before you write an exam, read your materials.

why? because you cant splash water without water.

wrong target

if you are highly specialized in your field but you target the wrong audience or contact the wrong people, no wonder you will not get a job or that the people will not listen to you or comprehend what you are talking about.

find the right audience. contact the right company you'd like to work for.

the north korea effect

sometimes we forget. just because we are surrounded by university graduates doesnt mean everyone is. just because we are (unfortunately) surrounded by people who live off social welfare doesnt mean everyone does.

maybe this is about breaking chains. or expanding your circle of friends.

pretty people know pretty people

this is a synergy effect which probably can be explained by psychologists but in my case is based on observation of others.

how can this synergy effect be used to the advantage of creative minds? the synergy effect of good looking folks probably can be explained by first intuition. we would usually not mistrust not a person that we are alike. but today's global communication is (unfortunately awefully lot) online on a variety of plattform, social media and alike. so it might be even more important to present yourself in good light.

a couple of questions arise:
is this attitide too superficial? should we always give a profile a second look? do we have the time for that?

what other methods are there to connect? (online conferences with more than 20 participants?)

whats your thought on this?
