11 Tips for choosing the right friends
1. Networker Higher
Whether it’s a career, life, or business relationship. you need to take them to the next level.
As for me, I have several older friends whom I sought advice from not only in my personal life but in my career as well. My older friends had experience and sound advice regarding life events. In regards to my career, I had several mentors.
Even in developing my online business, I find trusted people who can guide me while in unfamiliar territory.
2. Choose The Right Friends Who Have The Same Values As You Do
Keep core friendships with like-minded people. Choosing friends with similar values keep you from being negatively influenced by those that don’t.
When you have friends and colleagues with similar values, you help keep each other accountable.
3. Select Friends With Common Goals
When you have friends with similar goals, you can push each other. Together, you can work on your goals and hold each other accountable.
4. Find Those That Can Bring Balance In Areas Where You Are Weaker
Every human has strengths and weaknesses.
With the correct friends, you can tap into the skills, abilities, talents, and expertise in areas you do not. This could be in the form of a mentor, friend, family member, etc… in life, business, or whatever it may be. And you can do the same for them.
5. You Want Friends Who Motivate and Encourage You
No one wants a friend who is negative all of the time.
People who are positive and uplifting, are the ones you want in your life and exposure to. You want to surround yourself with these types of people.
Ask yourself, “What categories do your friends fall in?”
The best friends are the ones that offer a listening ear and place a positive spin on any situation.
