Choose companions that make your life better

Reflect on the five people you spend most of your time with
Do they have a positive influence on you? How much? How are they shaping your character?

Look for companions that push you out of your comfort zone
You want friends who support and inspire you to achieve greater heights. However, don’t get too cocky - look for companions who are humble too, to keep your ego in check.

Love negativity from afar
It’s hard to cut off a friend or family who only brings negativity to your life, but it’s not worth the cost to you. In the long run, letting them learn how to pick themselves up will benefit them more too.

Find the right partner by prioritizing willingness, willpower, and kindness
Compatibility isn’t as important as a sincere willingness and willpower to make the relationship work. This means making compromises with grace and showing kindness through attentiveness, forgiveness, and unconditional support.

Find the right person to work with
Ask yourself, “Is my boss who I want to be?” Remember that a good boss can have a tremendously positive influence on the future of your career.
