The leader of a seminar I attended this week told a story of how a connection he made with someone in Denmark through LinkedIn eventually resulted in him traveling to Russia to conduct a seminar there for small businesses. He revealed that through these international connections, he learned a great deal. Social media including LinkedIn and Facebook are great ways to make new connections with people worldwide and this can be a rewarding part of your own personal growth. Learning about different cultures and even getting the opportunity to travel to foreign destinations as a result will always be great for personal growth.
While this matter can be very tough for most people, my thought is that there has to be a middle or common ground that we all can find. I do treasure that you’ve added relevant and rational commentary here though. Very much thanks to you!
I’ve done speaking engagements in Canada, US, Germany and Ireland so far. All international speaking events have been great for me as not only did I get a chance to positively impact a different audience I otherwise wouldn’t have had to chance to in my home territory, I also learned a great deal for my own personal development each time I went to another country.
I’m also getting my books sold to new readers outside of North America as well which is a good thing too. It helps spread the key messages I want to take out there globally which hopefully will lead to more international interactions.

The internet, as old as it is, never ceases to surprise me. Look at this interesting find. There’s just so much to learn and so little time.
