We watched a Youtube video in class today called "Six Degrees of Separation" which was the way in which people could meet other people through people they know. I know that this is very confusing but it makes sense once understood. The person giving the speech was telling his audience that if everybody had 100 contacts or people they knew those 100 people will have 100 contacts each which could build your contacts. One example he talked about was how many people would it take for him to be in contact with the Pope. His answer was around 3-4. This had me very surprised as it seems like his authority and higher representativeness would become harder for outsiders to get in contact. He said that he knows someone in a church that knows a bishop who knew the Pope in school. It's crazy how that all works.
What I've learned from today's class was that it doesn't matter where you come from "the world is so small" and if you work hard and find the right people you will be able to do anything in life.
