Four facts about relationships; how many points do you associate yourself with?
✔️ (1) We often say life is too short to waste; people are essential, yet focus on unimportant stuff like pure performance, what others think, or complain about trivial things.
✅ What can you do? Be you, develop you and work on you! Do not take yourself so seriously, and laugh more often :-)
***
✔️ (2) We do not take DAILY action to develop our friendships, business relationships, and time with our partner.
✅ What can you do? We are social animals, and bonding is at our core. Go out of your comfort zone, and be curious about others. We often take it for granted until it is too late. We feel lonely and escape to work more and be performant in business, forgetting that relationships are the key to happiness and success in multiple areas. Keep in touch with key people, spend time with your loved ones, and hug more often! REMEMBER: Your network is your net worth. - Chris Haroun

✔️ (3) When did you last try to be more empathetic and kind to someone who needed help, maybe a stranger?
✅ Isn't happiness a sum of multiple areas being taken care of? We feel elevated when we elevate others; remember that, especially when we can forgive ourselves and the people around us and treat them kindly, we can experience harmony.

✔️ (4) How often do you practice building relationships with strangers or even people you disagree with?
✅ Those who master Psychology, relationship building, and understanding human behavior can better navigate myriad complexities and become effective influencers.
People in the blue zones do all the right things: move and spend time outside, AND they spend up to 6h a day face-to-face with others, which is linked to increased longevity, according to Dan Buettner. Look at the blue zones and you might be stunned, just like me. :-)
