Not All Friends Are To Stay Especially When Your Growth is Involved

Do you know that if you want to grow very big and very fast in our growing world, you need to learn how to shed things very fast. You need to learn how to shed events fast, how to shed circumstances fast, and most of all how to shed friends fast.

Starting my life in high school, I had almost everyone as my friend. If you were a lady and we didn't have any minor issue, then you were my friend. It was funny how gradually, I stopped being friends with a lot of these people and the reasons were strange. Some got into the University before me, and I got into the university before some. One thing we all dis was we made friends according to our success rates and we made new friends in the University.

If you want to succeed in life, there is a price for it. You go to the mall and you do not buy everything you see in the mall because you either do not have the money to pay for it, or it isn't of any value to you but in all, you are not willing to pay the price for the goods.

When you are in a clique of people and you are in the process of growth but they see it as being changed or they see you as coming too hard, then you need to understand that the circle is no longer meant for you. Either you like it or not, relationships are transactional, and although people do not like hearing that it is, we cannot deny the fact that it is actually. When you discuss with friends who are not willing to reinforce your believes and thoughts about growth, then you shouldn't expect anything less than being punished for your moves by your friends. The punishment can be verbal or attitudinal.

If there is no positive reinforcement over a long period of time, it is best to cut it off. If we want to judge our friends or the people we will be with in our adult life based on statistics, there is a low chance that they will be great people but if you can pick friends that can share identities with you, then you have great friends. If you are going to keep friends, you should keep friends that are willing to see you succeed, tell you the truth, deposit equal effort and resources to the relationship and be willing to grow as well else, you cut them and pick new friends that you share the same value.
