Indeed. In which specific area do you want to begin and to begin you need to network. Social and environmental area can be broken into specific areas, for example social - social responsibility towards? Younger or older age group? Or consumer responsibility as well, which you would like to consider. On the other hand, environmental activities - which one in specific - clean environment, urban farming and gardening, recycling and reuse, to name three. Once you have identified your interest, not to forget you must have passion, start researching. Who, what, where and how. This will take some time, but these days, with the virtual world, not difficult to come by. Select a few, maybe narrow down as well, read on the areas and set goals.

I keep an excel doc of my "sphere of influence" My circle of 90. I learned this from author Judy Robinett, who published a book on networking. A small number I keep in touch with daily A slightly larger number I keep in touch with weekly Quarterly, Yearly, so on..... One of the ways I put 'deposits' into the 'bank' is by connecting some of these folks to one another. If someone tells me they are planning a trip to Sedona, I will send an article that I saved in my "Pocket" app.

Precisely. Its also about testing the water. As if, we dwell deeper before we actually take the steps. Sometimes, its trial and error. Other times, we are not sure and we need time to decide. All said and done, we begin somewhere and the beginning is networking. For a start, we listen, we observe and we take note, and then, we get involve if we find the connection with the networking. Not to forget, if our values are in tandem with the networking as well. If it is, we take the steps and we blend it, we put forth our thoughts and ideas, and we yes, be mindful, instead of coming on as someone who is over-strong, posing threat to those in the same networking group or society or club. Remember, be who you are and if you can't fix it, bye!

The first thing is to identify the concern that the social or environmental group is going through, get involved by learning about it, and then establish contact from an empathetic, genuine motivation, listening and presence. Whatever the objective, the priority is to establish a genuine relationship by identifying the values of both the organization and your own and how they can be helpful in cultivating shared motivations.

1.Volunteer: Get involved in volunteer activities with organizations that align with your interests. Volunteering not only allows you to contribute to a cause but also provides opportunities to meet passionate individuals who share your values. 2. Create a Personal Brand: Establishing a personal brand that reflects your values and commitment to social and environmental issues can attract like-minded individuals and organizations. Share your experiences, insights, and thoughts through blogs, articles, or social media.

Of course. Learn to set boundaries instead of being the giver all the time. Be honest in what you can do. and what you say, as well as, sincerity is utmost important. Compassion always begin with us, and once we are compassionate towards ourself, trust me, we will be towards others, because we practice, we preach and we put in our actions as well. Please take note of the culture in the networking. Is there room for improvement, is there room for open communication and do we support and help each other, or its about power, status and position. This can be overwhelming for those who are expose to such things, and may take time to blend in and when we can't, lets say bye-bye.
