Samurai Networking

The past weekend I had one of those interesting experiences that everyone should experiment on their lives. A great activity to make some networking.

I received an invitation from Forbes Mexico to: "One of the most intense, challenging and powerful simulations available today with the objective to train leaders from the practice and action side. Based on the principles of the Samurai warrior path, each contestant is challenged to live and practice each principle every moment, as an opportunity to make them part of his everyday life".

With such a compelling message, I couldn't refuse, so I went and the best of it is that I had a wonderful time, I met a lot of people with such different backgrounds in so many ways. Even though we committed in friendship and fraternity to focus on the assigned task, and of course with the same objective: Win the Game.

As usual, some of my recommendations:

1.- Take risks. If you are invited to an event were you have no idea on what is all about, but you believe is interesting, go...How much you can loose?

2.- Make a commitment with the activity and give the best out of you. When you discover the event goal and you decide to participate, is important that you make a personal commitment. Once you decide to do something, give the best of you in the process. That way you will achieve the most. 

3.- Connect, where there is people, there is networking. Seize the  moment to meet the people you are with. It should be an interesting experience to get together some time later and share your new thoughts and feelings about the experience.
