When it comes to the work we’re doing and the change we seek to make, if you don’t move forward, sooner or later you begin to move backward.
The same can be said for connections you make. If you don’t continue to build that connection, the link begins to diminish.
At some point (not very far after establishing a connection) trust and social currency begin to wane and you’re both left without an opportunity to help one another out.
Believe it or not (as it is with most things in life), it’s easier to maintain a connection than it is to rebuild it.
Five or ten minutes a day can go a long way to maintaining a network that matters.
