“Both of my great occasions in life happened by accident simply because I showed up.” Loving this quote. It´s so true actually. If you don´t put yourself out there and go network or go to events, it´s quite difficult to stumble upon new opportunities. You might just get the chance to get your foot in the door somewhere. This can also be referred to the "online and social media space" - if you don´t put yourself out there (eg.on Linkedin) people are never going to recognize you and your work. In my opinion, you can work as hard as you want, if no one actually sees it and values it, it´s still a waste of time.
