What if we entertain the idea that every time you think of a friend, you actually reach out? You send the text, you send the photo, the video from you guys doing that trip from a long time ago, because you realize that that's going to turn into a 1-hour call unprompted where you guys are just catching up on life. How's life been? How's life been? And you learn all these little details of how their life is going, and then they invite you to a party that's happening. Next week in X city, you show up to that party, you meet all their friends, you're all having a good time hanging out. And there's a moment during that party where you're just sitting there and you just feel so thankful that you have developed this muscle to reach out, this muscle to whenever you think of a friend, you don't let that voice being like, oh, but it's been so long, or oh, what are they going to think of me? You don't let that voice win. You think of a friend, you take action. And that's what's gonna make your relationship stronger, and that's what's gonna get you the life you deserve.
