I know they can get pricey, but they are great learning experiences, motivators, and places to make new friends.    If you've ever been to a business conference, you know that while it is all of those things, it can also be overwhelming.   To try to make it less overwhelming, I\u2019m breaking down 5 tips that I think are going to help you to get the most out of conferences based on what I have learned and done at all the conferences I've been to.   Episode 76 Takeaways:  + You are not meant to listen to every presentation or take action on everything that you hear at a conference. + Pick what sessions you are going to go to before the conference. + Do what\u2019s going to help you be successful.  + Choose a note-taking system that works for you. + Turn off notifications or use a device without social media on it. + Be flexible and open to changing your schedule. + Have an accountability partner. + Take time to prioritize your action item list after the conference.   The tips that I have for you in this episode will help you to get the most out of your conferences and retreats this year and for many years ahead, so tune in!   I would love to connect with you!
