Networking outside your field can open your eyes to other possibilities and even keep you from making significant mistakes. Two examples: I watched a documentary about ancient Egypt in which the Egyptologist displayed a stone mace head about the size of a baseball and stated that it was probably ceremonial because it wasn't big enough to be effective as a weapon. Anyone who has extensively studied weapons will know that almost all mace-like weapons around the world have heads about the size of a baseball. A larger mace becomes heavy and too unwieldy to swing quickly. You have to strike a balance between force of impact and speed of delivery. On another occasion, a historian talking about the domestication of horses stated that horses wouldn't have been of much use in warfare until the invention of the chariot because without stirrups, the horse doesn't make a very good fighting platform. Scythian horse archers and Sassanid cataphracts would beg to differ. Both of these errors could have been avoided simply by consulting an expert in military history before coming to the final conclusion. I'm sure similar mistakes occur in other fields in which I'm not an expert.

All people are our human resources, no matter who or where they are, and we must keep them all due to we are dealing with a variety of scenarios, thus there is a form of network that I call adaptable networking. At the end, the network is the key to success.

I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 4 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 20,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 60,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967716649494 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger. My family and I ask you, by God, if you are able to help us, do not be late and may God reward you well..`/--~«««~-♡~♡~♡~~•~•~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡♡♡~~~~: ~:~¡~¡~¡~;I.i.i.i.i.i. i.I.|-◖≤o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯|\__/|¯尸o¯
