FRIENDS
Yesterday, I received a mail stating that I've been selected for a training program and that I should take a survey to fully authenticate my slot.
I was amazed because I was wondering how can that happen but here is the interesting part of it.
I didn't apply for it. A friend did without my knowledge. She felt it would be of great benefit to me and she applied for me.
The role of the people you call friends cannot be under/over emphasize in your life. Friends would either do two things; push us forward or backward. And the type of friends you keep can only determine how fast you reach your goal or how slowly you reach your goal.
One of the things I'm learning at this point in my life is trying to categorize the people in my life into different friend's zone. There are some friends I can't go to for advice not because they can't advice me but because they don't have enough resources to give me a good advice. Knowing your friends capacity has it relates to your life would help you clearly define where they should function in your life.
One of the reasons why you keep having friends who disappoint you is because you haven't learn to place them in the category they belong to. Learn to place your friends in the category they belong to; drinking buddy, hangout friends, advisory friends. Trust me, you would know which friends fit into which category if you take out time to understand them and how their influence affect you. Don't go seeking for advice from a friend that is your drinking buddy, knowing fully well that what you guys share is only those empty bottles on a table.
