哪裡找新朋友?
Where To Meet New Friends? getthefriendsyouwant
Facebook : Of course, you have to know how
to do it properly, or else, you’ll waste a huge amount of time.
Non-Profit : Join a non-profit or just go
to their events, talk to people and get interested in the people. You can talk
to people about the event’s subject, but the more you can talk about THEM, the
more chances you’ll become a friend.
Social Events : Expat Events, Social
Groups, Networking Events, 20-something After-work Events. These are great, I went
to hundreds of events like them. The people are open and interested in making
new friends. Also, if you’re a little shy, don’t worry, these are the EASIEST
people to talk to.
Neighbors : Simple sequence : go from Hi to
How Are Things Going? to How’s work? to What do you do? to Care for a drink?
Online Forums : Fitness, Dating, Sports…
it’s amazing how you can take any subjet, let’s say “fishing”, go to google,
type “fishing forum san diego” and you’ll find a whole community of people
interested in that. You can go to a forum around something you love, start
sharing your opinions on topics and then send private messages to some people
you want to meet.
Bars and Pubs : Yes, they can be
intimidating. But you can just start talking to someone at the bar, guy or girl.
If you want to meet new people at bars, go to busy bars where the music is not
too loud. If you put yourself in a busy area, people are going to be all around
you. Turn on your confidence and talk to people.
Personally, I go to bars because my social
life gets stimulated in there. I happen to bump into a lot of people I know
that I would like to turn into friends. I meet existing friends and I get to
meet THEIR friends. And also, it gives me a chance to introduce my friends to
each other which is very important.
Book Clubs and Book Stores : Never tried a
book club but I met a few female friends in bookstores. One time, I just said
to a girl holding a personal finances book “Hey, that’s what rich people read…
you must be rich, let’s get married or something!”. She was into self
improvement so we hit it off pretty quick.
Private Parties : Always go to the private
parties of people you know. Especially the Birthday parties. People may act
aloof about it, but it means a LOT to them if you show up at their birthday
party. You make the friendship go a lot deeper. And it’s a great way to meet
THEIR friends. Chances are, you’ll meet their close friends and some family.
And people get very friendly and open in birthday parties.

名人失敗記
Famous People Who Failed at Their First Attempt at Career Success budbilanich
Not everyone who’s on top today got there with success after success. More often than not, those who history best remembers were faced with numerous obstacles that forced them to work harder and show more determination than others. Next time you’re feeling down about your failures in college or in a career, keep these fifty famous people in mind and remind yourself that sometimes failure is just the first step towards success.
Soichiro Honda: The billion-dollar business that is Honda began with a series of failures and fortunate turns of luck. Honda was turned down by Toyota Motor Corporation for a job after interviewing for a job as an engineer, leaving him jobless for quite some time. He started making scooters of his own at home, and spurred on by his neighbors, finally started his own business.
Bill Gates: Gates didn’t seem like a shoe-in for success after dropping out of Harvard and starting a failed first business with Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen called Traf-O-Data. While this early idea didn’t work, Gates’ later work did, creating the global empire that is Microsoft.
Walt Disney: Today Disney rakes in billions from merchandise, movies and theme parks around the world, but Walt Disney himself had a bit of a rough start. He was fired by a newspaper editor because, “he lacked imagination and had no good ideas.” After that, Disney started a number of businesses that didn’t last too long and ended with bankruptcy and failure. He kept plugging along, however, and eventually found a recipe for success that worked.
Isaac Newton: Newton was undoubtedly a genius when it came to math, but he had some failings early on. He never did particularly well in school and when put in charge of running the family farm, he failed miserably, so poorly in fact that an uncle took charge and sent him off to Cambridge where he finally blossomed into the scholar we know today.
Oprah Winfrey: Most people know Oprah as one of the most iconic faces on TV as well as one of the richest and most successful women in the world. Oprah faced a hard road to get to that position, however, enduring a rough and often abusive childhood as well as numerous career setbacks including being fired from her job as a television reporter because she was “unfit for tv.”
J. K. Rowling: Rowling may be rolling in a lot of Harry Potter dough today, but before she published the series of novels she was nearly penniless, severely depressed, divorced, trying to raise a child on her own while attending school and writing a novel. Rowling went from depending on welfare to survive to being one of the richest women in the world in a span of only five years through her hard work and determination.
