This guy has a talent for telling annoyingly obvious things with the most respectable look I've ever seen.

Be your self

Me: I have no interest i talking to you, it's not that I feel uncomfortable or anything I just don't like being with other people

I just watched this and then I went to a networking event to exercise these skills...they work, but you've gotta pick good quiet places like in this video. The place I went to tonight was crowded, loud, and filled people outside of my industry. :(

This was wonderful! I'll be excited when this actually happens to me. I'd like to be able to remember folks names (if I weren't so anxious). :D How to get over the anxiousness and start listening to remember.

what if you don't have a business card? carrying stacks of paper resumes around just seems too burdensome.
