Volunteer..  
Last month I wrote:"The personal connections you make with people are the "entry point" for growing your relationships."
 
"Get out and make connecting personal."
 
 If you are out of work and in Career Transition, find something that aligns with your passion and volunteer in the community. The Non Profit organizations need so much help, especially now. Sharing your skills and passion can make a big differnce.
