I wholeheartedly agree with your comments. Quality is always better than quantity. This applies to our circle as well. Thank you for the specific examples relating to red flags.

You got it. It's hard sometimes for people to really think about their sphere and who really is a solid presence. I appreciate your "quality over quantity" statement. Definitely applies.

Yes Dale Carnegie touches on the circle/network in his books “How to win friends and influence people” and also touched on in the book by Patty Azzarello “Rise” she pointed out the distant network is also very important and to maintain that.

Dr. Julie Gurner expands on the circle in a unique and fascinating angle.

Excellent advice. I needed it 20 years ago!! But I wouldn’t have been receptive at that point in my life.

Thanks JH...Hopefully we hit a few folks who at least have to hear this early on, and can be useful. Thanks for underscoring that if they're reading!

Sigh! If only I knew about this 10 years back, this would have made a big difference. At 40, I just feel I have wasted the last 10 years! Thank you for the wonderful advice!
