Valuable Insights:

● Don't let your social anxiety get in the way of interacting with the people you want

to talk to.

● When we are in situations where we do feel apprehensive, just recognize that

we're not alone. That it's a natural feeling—and the smallest step you take will

get you out of it.

● Start to think about your end goal at that conference and reverse engineer that

outcome based on how you introduce yourself to other people.

● Go to conferences with an open mind, talk to as many people as possible, and

learn from them because there is a concentration of high-calibre people.


● The biggest mistake people make at live conferences is spending too much time

talking to each individual you've spoken to.

● When you're at conferences, don't waste people's time by selling. Just be

vulnerable about your challenges and take different ideas from people.

● You can be great at everything, but if you're not doing a good job of filtering on

the spot, chances are you're going to miss those people who can be life

changers for you.

● To maximize your time at an event, focus a lot more on quantity rather than

quality because for every one amazing person you meet at a live event, there's

probably five other amazing people that you missed.
