True Friend

 


  How many friends or 'friends' do you have? Have you ever had a true friend in your life? Some people believe that the older we are the fewer we have friends. However, most people count good friends among the most important people in their lives. But keep in mind not all friends are good. 

  Friendship is an essential part of life and they are what makes life worth living. Our friends help us live more meaningful, fun, and joyful lives in so many ways. A true friend is a friend when it is convenient and when it is not. Someone who is a true friend stands up for you. When others try to hurt you emotionally or physically, they do everything they can to make sure you are safe. Mostly they answer you with empathy, perspective, and honesty. So let's take a look deeper at the sign of a true friendship.

  They are supportive. This is one of the defining factors that makes someone your true friend since should support your dreams and aspirations in life. If you have a dream and you want to accomplish it, they should encourage and motivate you towards it instead of away from it. Moreover, a true friend is supportive through any challenges. Without warning, we might face traumatic or difficult even that affect emotional well-being such as family problems. pandemics, unemployment, or death of a loved one. 

  True friends are good listeners. They would be someone who actively listens to everything you have to say and not just stay on their side of things. In this way, you can always rely on friends to give good advice and help guide you through life. Sometimes, we may not notice it. They listen deeply so they can give the right advice since they care deeply about you. 

   A true friend can create personal development. If you want to create a positive change in your life, friends can help you maintain your resolve to practice healthier habits. One way friends can help you change for the better is by providing good examples. For example, people are more motivated to a weight loss or exercise program when they do it the best mate. It's much easier to get out and stay active when you have a friend by your side. This can boost your self-confidence. 

  Right looks like it's time for the bottom line. As we know good friends are important at every stage in life. Either physically or mentally. But strong friendships will continue to strengthen you, decade by decade since the respect, trust, forgiveness, and support will always stay the same. Thank you for your time and have a nice day 😀.

Leader Vs Boss

    Some people might use the terms "boss" and "leader" interchangeably, but that's not entirely accurate. The truth is, some bosses are simply a boss. They have attained a position in the management section of the corporate pyramid. Those positions alone don't make them leaders. They are just pushing their employers while "sitting down". However, bosses can become leaders, and doing so should become a priority for those who want to effectively lead in the workplace. So, what is the difference between a leader and a boss?   A boss refers to an individual who is in charge of the employee or an organisation. He exercises control over employees, assigns tasks, and duties to them, and is entitled to take decisions on some matters. There is no formal title like "boss" in the organisational chart, but the term indicates a person who is the owner or appointed as head of the organisation, department, or division.   On the other hand, the term lea

About Phubbing

    In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected.   Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise.

Early Birds and Night Owls

  In this world, there are two kinds of people in this world, people who love to hear birds chirping in the morning, and people who wish the birds had a mute button somewhere. Someone likes the sun going up, someone likes the sun drowning to keep the night up. In other words, early birds and night owls. So, which one are you?    Early birds or morning people. They are awake in the morning and love to welcome the new day. Early birds tend to go to bed early, wake up early, and feel their best as the day begins. As a general rule, early birds find a society more accommodating than night owls do. Early birds generally have an easier time adjusting to standard daytime schedules.    On the other hand, night owls or night people tend to stay up late, enjoy sleeping in, have more energy at night, and feel tired after waking up early. Night owls do have a few downsides. They might have a harder time holding a traditional job. Young night owls might have trouble making a fixed school or univers
