Well, it's been awhile--almost two years--to get back on blogging here; nothing particularly about travellings, especially international travellings this time, even I have been traveling around in States for work and fun, not to mention that Boston is still my favorite city.
I recently finished up reading a book named "Never Eat Alone" by Keith Ferrazzi, which is about building relationships in business-there are a few chapters discussing about how to establish and maintain a healthy relationship in today's market, including follow-ups, small talk, conferences, mutual interests, etc. I have to say that the book itself is a bit common-sense but it does a good job to lay out what matters the most in relationship-building. What gets me excited is that I value relationship-buidling the siginificant in my life so there are so many mutual understanding and sparkling while reading this book.
Anyway, the secret of being an author is to write--that's where gets me back here again. I might not be an author one day but writing does help me keep track of my learning experiences from now on. I guess I need to clear my mind and calm the fuck down for the job search--my passion for consulting never lower down a bit.
I am going to track down some business articles from nytimes, WSJ, BI, etc and also add some new finding about website, food lover, wine-tasting, travelling and other interesting stuff.
summary of the day:\
