The Hunt Begins
Although we make friendship with people from different walks of life, in most cases people it is seen that people who have shared passions stay for a long time. Its the passion that binds them together. Therefore it is very much necessary to connect with people who have shared passions. For example our mobile software people are eager to connect to one another. Therefore we joined a similar company. That day we attended a Mobile India event @ Bangalore and was able to meet industry folks passionate about mobile. Again one person can have more than one passions like leadership & personal development, social media , photography , financial mastery , human resources, social outreach etc. So how can we find those persons or groups without going to a real conference & just by sitting @ home. The hunt for the people with shared passion has led me find some interesting places you can look for. The first place to hunt for those groups is Facebook the giant forest with 800 million people. Go to Facebook & Search for terms related to your passion. For example say Social Media The second place for hunting people is Blog Search provided by Google. http://www.google.com/blogsearch Lastly you can find Twitter Search. Just type the keyword & you can follow your tribe. Once you find the groups & people start listening to them, comment on their posts and eventually you will connect. And just dont forget to connect them @live conferences. And not to forget the smiles , giggles & connection @ office. That group of shared passions should be the group you should be looking for.
Thanks & regards
Take care
