“Ben Chestnut quotes Steve Jobs’ famous line, “Creativity is just connecting things”. But, says Ben, this only works if you *actually have THINGS to connect*.

You. Have. To. Make. Things.”

“One of the cool side effects is the number of cross connections I was able to make. A surprising number of those people turned out to be the answer to what someone else was looking for. Also surprising was how open very busy people were to having a meeting without a clear agenda, just as long as they didn’t have to think of proposing it.”

“A six year study of middle aged men showed that having more friends was the most powerful predictor of having a long life, more important than not smoking or getting exercise. We don’t fully understand why, but connections are important.”
