All it seems to have done for the last 3-4 days is Rain Rain Rain. Yorkshire seemed to get the worst of it and according to the news half of Leeds was supposed to be underwater. So I went for a drive today trying to find all this flooding. I couldn't find many affected areas until I came across some workmen trying to pump water out of the main Leeds to Skipton rail line.
I knew it was a great photo opportunity, so I got out of the car and asked the workmen if I could come onto the tracks to take some images of the flooded track. To my surprise they said yes.
It is something I have learned in business is that if you don't ask you will never know. The worst anything someone can say to you is NO, but in my experience they rarely do.
So if there is a someone you want to network with to help your business then go and visit them, make an appointment, the worst they can say is NO but you might find they are just as keen as you to network and you could have start up a new business alliance.
So Phil's lesson of the day (!!) is: Go out there and talk to people - it's not as scary as you think!
