Networking Mindset Exercise
Networking mindset exercise: This is a self-reflective exercise that only requires you to think. When you think about connecting with others in your new tech field, what comes to mind? Is this something that you’re excited about? Are you anxious? Are you nervous? Take about 5 - 10 minutes to assess your thoughts and feelings about networking.
I think of primarily networking through LinkedIn but networking face to face is more important. This will be hard for me since I do not have any personal connections to other people in this field. In order to get over this challenge I will have to put myself out there and meet new people in the industry. I plan on attending more React.Indy meetings as well as go to some conferences/web summits on things like React, Node etc.
I am a little nervous that I don't have a college degree but I have been hearing it is not a big deal if you know what you are doing. This still gives me a sense of imposter syndrome though.
