Re: Starting from scratch?
Longtime friend-of-the-list Marcus Blankenship wrote in with useful follow-up to yesterday’s message (shared with permission):
I’m in this phase, and have done it three times now. One piece of advice that helped me:
Contact people in your network and ask them two questions: “What is my superpower? When/how have I been helpful to you personally?”
It’s amazing to hear how others see you, and a confidence booster that you do bring value to others.
Just a thought.

I love it! If you’re reaching out to people anyway, this is a good addition.
Thanks to Marcus for sharing :-)
