Overview
Before you get involved in any type of new arrangement or commitment today, get a clearer picture of what you are really getting yourself into. Take a long hard look at the people involved. Do you trust them? Do you like them? Can you learn from them? You cannot take other people's recommendations about what to do at face value. Everyone has a ulterior motive right now. They see things through their own filter and do not totally understand what is important to you.
