It's our Choice

There are things in life which we don’t have control over, such as where we are born, the color of our skin, our family etc.… but there’s one thing we have control over, which to me is one of the most important decisions we could make & that is choosing out friends and who we surround ourselves with. Why is this so important to me? It’s so impactful and helpful to our personal and professional growth as going to school and reading books. Did you ever asked yourself why we had group discussions in class and why do we have continuous and repeating meetings at work? We had those discussions and meeting because sharing ideas and input in different aspects or situations amongst a group gives us a better understanding of the issue in hand & it also helps us see things differently.

So now, why are our friends so important? I’ll give you an example of my friends. Each one of have something positive to bring into my life and my growth. I’ve always been the type of person who wants to learn, to grow and to think ahead. My friends? We share similar values and purposes, we all want to grow, we all want to help & we all have a positive thought process. Although we are not always on the same page, we all have put ways of teaching each other our thoughts and how we feel about certain things, which is great, it gives us a better understanding on anything, and if there’s something we didn’t know about, we serve as teachers for each other.

Now, who do you really want around? Does not matter where you’re at in life, no matter what kind of lifestyle you’re living, you always need to surround yourself with people who make you better, people who will not have a problem teaching you what they know. Last and most important, surround yourself with people who bring the best out of you at no cost.  That’s the kind of people you need in your corner.  

To my friends, you guys are the reason I was able to write this! Thank you & Love You.
