The Power of Groups and Networking

What a novel idea...

Go online to find places, things, and people to meet with offline in the real world. If you have not heard or had a chance to visit www.meetup.com then I would strongly suggest you get to it! Recently, I set up a free account and did some searches to find things that interested me in my area. I found a number of groups in my area that I would have no idea existed if it weren't for meetup. Below, I have listed some of the events that interest me.

NY Tech Meetup - I first came across this group because I have always been very interested in technology, gadgets, and computers. One of the best things about this group is that I get a chance to read the posts that all the member write about technology. What a way to learn about new websites and technology! I feel much more in the loop and who knows what kind of entrepreneurial ideas I can conjure up from this group.

New York City Entrepreneurs - I have just recently joined this group but I am hoping to meet other entrepreneurs who are energetic, passionate, and driven. "Birds of a feather, flock together."

NYC Web Design - I have always had a strong interest in web design. I am hoping this group will help connect me to some professionals who can help guide me onto the right path to developing even more of a skill within this field.

Law of Attraction - The Secret had a very powerful and positive impact on millions of people. This group is about getting those people together with the same type of mindsets and that is why I felt it was a must for myself to be involved with.

Restaurant Owners & Managers - I have been interested in the nightlife industry for some time now and networking with restaurant owners is a great way for me to get established. I also find that owners in any business to all have fascinating stories and successful guidance advice that any entrepreneur can learn from.

I am sure there will be more groups in the future for me to discover but in the mean time good luck to all you fellow entrepreneurs looking for others with the similar mindsets and passions for life...
