The key to making the most of the social abundance on tap? Placing yourself in the thick of the collectives, covens, and conferences that feel the most expansive. In fact, your quips, pithy remarks, and powers of analysis are what will help you stand out from the crowd. An offhand comment could lead to a deep conversation that propels you into your next great collaboration. But you need to put yourself out there. Your ideal co-conspirator is looking for you too. Meet them halfway by schmoozing up a storm.
