- Exercises to control your mind chatter which will help you listen and empathize.
- Questions and conversation techniques to deepen your relationship, with new or old friends.
- And so much more.
After six years, The How to Make Friends Book – “The Golden Handshake” is here. Learn seven keys to help develop your social gravity, make great friends, and keep them. Your social life is a reflection of who you are, your personality, and how people respond to your thoughts, words, and actions. This blog and this book will show you the philosophy of great friendships and will also help you, step by step, increase your own social gravity.
People all around the world spend more time in isolation than ever before. Living alone, commuting in a car, listening to an iPod – each of these is a type of social confinement. The loss of our family lifestyle can be personally liberating as you choose how to live your days without the thought of familial responsibility. Where the advantage is liberating, the disadvantage is isolating – a majority of people have forgotten how to thrive in a society, how to interact. Many people have forgotten how to enjoy their families or how to be fully fulfilled by their friends and loved ones.
As counter intuitive as it may seem, the key to social enjoyment is based more on your interaction with yourself than on your interaction with others. If you are able to feel comfortable in your own skin, no matter where you are, you will be better able to enjoy the company around you. The How to Make Friends Book guides you through the steps to personal enjoyment and only THEN shows you how to use your comfort and confidence to build a social life custom fit to your lifestyle. I hope you enjoy the read. Willy.
A great social change has happened during the last few generations. This change, the dissolve of the family, continues today. Not too long ago we were tribes, living and moving as a group of friends, blood relatives, and in-laws. In photographs of old families there are aunts, grandfathers, step-brothers, friends – all within the same house or at least the same neighborhood. We have all but forgotten this way of living. Now our families and tribes are spread out. Our society continues to move toward a more individualistic structure in which we live within small family units, or with a few friends, or alone. But what have we lost? What can we remember and relearn from our tribal ancestors?
