How to Strengthen Your Relationships

From TED Talk how to be a Better human podcast

5-3-1- rule:

• Aim to connect with at 5 people a week
• Cultivate 3 close relationships
• 1 hour a day connecting

Quality of connection is more important that’s quantity! Especially for those with introverted tendencies ;) AKA me

• Maybe try scheduling a weekly breakfast with a friend?

• You have to actively cancel it

• 10 minute phone calls a week… randomly maybe try this

• Something as simple as “texting a friend, and saying I’m thinking about you… THIS COUNTS AS A CONNECTION!

• I.e if a song, or a Déjà vu moment reminds, immediately text them ;)
