Last year August, I decided to make observations to know if friends are really an influence in peolple's life, My answer is a big Yes!
I checked the lives of over 30people from august till date and it totally proves it.
Friends influence your life in ways you cannot imagine, if you have up to three close friends with the same perception, my dear your perception will fall in line with theirs.
Areas of your life your friends influence:
1.
Career and Aspirations: when you build relationships with people who have succeeded, you find a mentor and climb the ladder of success. However if you relate with the "anything-goes" kind of individuals, your aspiration then becomes "anything-goes".
If you associate yourselve with entrepreneurs, you then strive towards being an entrepreneur.
Assessment: look at the friends you have and their career path, i bet its almost then same with yours.
2
. Eating and drinking habits: Ever notice that when a "non-drinking" guy hangs out with drinkers, he is forced to drink.
when a "no-sweet tooth" girl hangs out with her sweet tooth friends she is forced to eat along.
Assessment: Think about it, most times you go out with your friends, do u eat what you want or what you are tuned to want?
3.
Relationship: If your friends are cheats, you will one day succumb to cheating. While your friends may often mean well when giving you relationship advice, note that they only advice you based on their own experience the half story you give. I met a group of four friends that established by 30 they would be married and now they are all married. I also met a group of men in late thirties that are more interested in flirting.
Assessment: How is your relationship and how is that of your friend?
