Your career isn’t static—or at least it shouldn’t be. In order to get ahead, some things have to change. What worked at one stage of your professional life won’t work at another. Your skills should evolve, and you should check periodically to make sure they’re keeping you competitive. Even the way you use social media to find jobs and get your name out there should also change over time.

But what about people? We often think of our professional network as a continuously expanding thing. Meet someone new, add them to the list. The list gets longer, your opportunities get ever wider.
