So now let's talk about the five keys to develop amazing friendships with people. So the first key would be about deciding what kind of friends you would like to have. And most people do is they don't ask themselves this question. They just approach people and they can't really find someone they can connect with. What I would like you to do is to just think for a few seconds, about the kind of friends that you would like to attract to your life. And it has to be congruent with who you are, it has to match your personality.
Because let's say that, for example, you are quiet, you like reading books, and you are introverted. And you would like to attract people who are adventurous, outgoing, who love clubbing, it will be something that will be really different. So what I encourage you to do is just a thinking about the kind of friends you'd like to have. And there is a famous quote from Jim Rohn that says that we are the average of the five people that we hang out. The most with you will see later in this course, I will show you exactly how to uncover who you are and how to how to find the kind of friends that you would like to attract. The second advice I would like to share with you here is to be generous with the people that you meet.
Most people approach other human beings and then they try to take value from them, it means that they say, Oh, this person can be great for me, and they don't really add any social value. So, by adding social value, you will be able to make more friends and social value is any value that you could give to people. For example, it can be something that you say a compliment, it can be an advice, information, it can be something verbally that you say that adds value to the to the other person's life. And then you also have the non verbal adding value. It means that you could also add value just With your energy with your smile, by, you know, having great emotions and just being a happy human being. So we see all that in the course.
So don't worry. The third advice is about finding something in common that you have with your new friend. Because if you think about the people that you hang out with right now, is something has a commonality. It means that if you have a friend, and you really connect with this person, it means that you have something in common. It can be work, it can be an activity, it can be something that you like something that you do together, it has to be something because in order to create a friendship, you must have a commonality. The firm the force advice is about keeping contact with your friends, because most people, they will just approach someone, make new friends, and then they would stop contacting The person.
And if you do that, the relationship will die out, what you would like to do is just keep contacting this person, even if it's through text messages of Facebook or WhatsApp or Instagram or any other great communication channel is is great. What I would like you to do is just keep sending things to that person. So we should have that in the course. And the fifth advice would be to be an action taker. I would like you to take action in your social life. I would like you to create your opportunities.
I would like you to have the courage to just approach no people. You see someone in a bar that you really want to talk to just go and approach that person. I would like you to have a mindset of an action taker. I would like you to create the opportunity. I would like you to just approach people and see what happens. You see here, I really want you to To create as many opportunities as you can to interact with people so that maybe you can connect with this person.
And then you can create an amazing friendship, but just go approach people. So let's start right now. Let's start digging deep into this course on how you can create amazing friendships.
