Expunge your past. You are welcome.

Pro tip: Looking for a satisfying way to spend a few minutes on your own? 

Cull 229 names (more or less) from your LinkedIn connections list.

Plenty of opportunity there to dismiss:

• folks you've never met,
• folks you have no intention of meeting,
• folks you honestly don't remember,
• folks with whom you've had unsatisfactory dealings,
• folks who have duplicate LinkedIn profiles (lots of those),
• folks who have passed on to that Big Coffee Shop In The Sky.

This is a relatively quick but oh-so-fun way to say goodbye to parts of your past. And, more importantly, LinkedIn doesn't inform that person that you've parted ways with them!

Then head to the fridge, grab a beverage, and make a toast to all those relationships you never really had.

Prost.
