Prov. 13:20 - Walk with the wise and become wise, a companion of fools suffers harm.
You are the average of your five closest friends (financially, morally, spiritually, etc.)
Are you hanging with the right people? Do you want to become like them?
Top Three reasons friendships are declining:
Increasing work hours
Rising divorce rates
Explosion of Social Media
Two things you can do to be a better friend…
Be Present! “I will develop my friendships face to face, not thumbs to thumbs
There is POWER in Physical & Emotional Presence
Get Open! Be Transparent, be vulnerable, release control
We impress each other with our strengths, but we connect to each other through our weaknesses
