A friend is someone you know well and care about, who also knows and cares about you. HELP GUIDE. There are many benefits to having friends. True friends are there for you through thick and thin. Sharing what your going through with someone is always helpful to get stuff of your shoulders. Also the person you are sharing your situations with might be able to give you advice on how to make it better or how to cope with the stuff you are going through. Friends are also there to push you to do better on your goals or what your trying to achieve. They push you to be a better person and make the right decisions.
Surrounding yourself with people who bring positivity into your life can elevate your mood and boost your outlook. Also "having a more social life can open up new interest" pg 180. They can get you involved in things you never would have thought you liked. Or you can do simpler things like going to football, basketball or volleyball games. There you can socialize and meet new people. You can find new interest and get you involved in activities you could potentially see your self doing in the future or as a job or career.
How do your friends make you a better person?
Wow Sam, very cool blog post. I think my friends push me to be better at sports. Friendly competition is a reason to improve, and motivation to do so
ReplyDeleteThank you! Same, I also want to do better not only for my own benefit but since I play a team sport I also want to get better for the team and to be a strong asset.
DeleteAwh Sam, I'm in your friend picture! I also think that going to social events can allow you to meet new people! My friends make me a better person by keeping me in check, and boost my confidence!
ReplyDeleteYou are! Yeah you never know who your going to end up meeting. And in the long run they can become very good friends of yours. For example us! Same, they know if I'm messing up they will put me in my place.
DeleteThis is so true, I really think that going out with friends helps you meet more people and create more friends. Being social really does help you in the future so yeah, I like this post! (:
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yeah, i tried going to more football games this year and I met a lot of new people that are now people I talk to on the daily!
DeleteI don't know what I would do without friends. They are always there for me through the ups and the downs. I agree that having friends to encourage you to try and do new things is good. I love having friends and getting to meet new people because of them.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't know what to do either! A very good friend of my likes to bike and hike! So sometimes I would like to do it every weekend or so, and it wouldn't just be for the fun of it, it would also help me to get more in shape and that would help me a lot with sports!
DeleteMy friends enhance my life by going on all of my crazy adventures with me and adding to those adventures. They make me laugh. The provide a sounding board for my ideas. They offer real feedback that pushes me to make good decisions and supports me when I do. They inspire me to work hard and to be creative. They help me when I am stuck and they make me a better by holding me accountable.
ReplyDeleteI agree completely! My friends and I like to talk about crazy adventures we would like to do together in the future when we graduate! My friends also encourage me to do better in school and to have a better life.
