Deep dives

Building Meaningful Relationships

In our 20s, it is important to prioritize building meaningful relationships and making connections. While it can be challenging to make friends in adulthood, treating everyone you meet like they are already your best friend and saying yes to new experiences can help you create a strong social circle. Additionally, maintaining old friendships and introducing them to new friends can provide stability and long-term connections. It is crucial to let go of friendships that no longer serve you and focus on quality over quantity. Being the instigator in organizing social activities can also help create a thriving social circle.
