Some Quotes on Networking and Overcoming Failure

NETWORKING
“Discover twenty key people with whom you resonate favorably and can do vast amounts of business.” —Mark Victor Hansen

“Networking is simply the cultivating of mutually beneficial, give and take, win-win relationships. It works best, however, when emphasizing the ‘give’ part.” —Bob Burg

“Network continually—85 percent of all jobs are filled through contacts and personal references.” —Brian Tracy

OPPORTUNITIES
“There is no security in life, only opportunity.” —Denis Waitley

“Pa, he always said a man had to look spry for himself, because nobody else would do it for him; your opportunities didn’t come knocking around, you had to hunt them up and hog-tie them.” —Louis L’Amour

“Effective people are not problem-minded; they’re opportunity-minded. They feed opportunities and starve problems.” —Stephen Covey

“If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door.” — Milton Berle

OVERCOMING FAILURE
“Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently.” —Denis Waitley

“I am not judged by the number of times I fail, but by the number of times I succeed; and the number of times I succeed is in direct proportion to the number of times I can fail and keep on trying.” —Tom Hopkins

“No man ever became great or good except through many and great mistakes.” —William E. Gladstone

“When you make a mistake, don’t look back at it long. Take the reason of the thing into your mind, and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in your power.” —Mary Pickford

I love reading great quotes! When I read the quote by Mary Pickford about overcoming failure, it reminded me about another quote from Thomas S. Monson. He said, "Learn from the past. Live in the present. Plan for the future". When it comes to overcoming failure, we need view it as a learning experience and move on. We need to grasp the new opportunities that come our way and make the best of it.
