You probably did not expect it, but people who share the same faith, beliefs or hobbies may also help you with finding a job.  You may have a different career from theirs, but they might know somebody who is in the same field or will be able to help you in your career.

However, depending on your level of association with them, they may think twice about giving their opinion or thoughts about their contacts.  Their opinion can sometimes help you in making a strategy on how to approach and ask for help from their contacts.

* People who sell you things

You may think that your relationship with these people is purely based on trading goods and services, then paying for them.  However, people who sell you things are also sources of information when networking.

Since these people sell their goods to different types of persons, they may have associated with somebody who belongs to the same field as you do, or have heard information about your target job from their other clients.

These people will also be happy to help you, since they know that maintaining a pleasant relationship with you means a stable business.

Letting go of the question will release the stress you are undergoing by trying to “squeeze” the creativity.  Once you let it go, all the power of the universe is free to find a solution and the solution will come to you when you least expect it.  

In much more real life scenarios, you could think out of the box for fun.  You can practice fun trouble-making stuff without hurting anyone by saying or doing the unexpected.  But make sure that you do this first to persons you already know to avoid conflicts and negative confrontations.  Say, a buddy asks for the time, automatically you would look at your wrist watch which is a result of the stimulus-response theory.  Thinking out of the box, why not say something crazy like, "Oh it's time for a vengeance," then head toward the door.
