Making connections is fairly easy if you are willing to put yourself in situations that you normally wouldn’t do. I have been a lot more open about talking about my journey through college and where I would like to end up in life with a lot of strangers. I’m becoming more comfortable in using the people I know to connect to others and using those connections to my own benefits. The connections that I make with others could eventually lead me into finding the dream job that I want. They could be future references on a resume without me even knowing right away. Never be afraid of your story and how you got to where you are. Embrace that story and use it to reach out to others. The more open you are about it the better chance you’ll find exactly what you have always wanted.
