How Networking Changed My Life ....
"It's not what you know, it's who you know"
I like this saying very much. Looking back at major events in my life, I can't see any great thing that happened to me happening without knowing someone or being connected in a way or another to someone who helped me climb to a higher level of my life.
The way I got into college; It was the first year our embassy had cultural exchange seats in Kuwait University. I was planning on going home for college, until my dad's friend who works as an administrator in the embassy told my dad they have scholarships in Kuwait University.
The way I got to AU; It was my dear professors who recommended me to this scholarship. I salute these people from the bottom of my heart; these people without whom, I wouldn't be writing this blog post right now.
The way I'm spending my time in the summer break in Virginia; It's because of miss Dorothy; my mentor in KU who is an instructor in The Monroe Institute (a stress management and brainwave technology institute in Virginia). She suggested that I apply for their student scholarship, and I did. Thank you, miss Dorothy. Thank you very much.
I think all the luck I have and all the blessings in my life is totally because of the great people who surround me (physically or even virtually). I could go on for ever, but I think the point is clear.
My warmest gratitude to every person who entered my life. I love you all ...
