How do you choose your friends?

Someone once told me that the people you surround yourself with - your friends, your family, your work colleagues - are a reflection of who you are.

I often see people that share similar qualities, characteristics and values that seem to stay really close, so perhaps there is some truth to this thought. There must be an understanding or an attraction of sorts that exists between people, which keeps some close together and others significantly far apart.

The biggest lesson i can take from this idea is that if those around you are a reflection of at least one part of you, than it's best to surround yourself with individuals that make you happy and can add adventure, love and excitement to your life.

Those people who make you happiest are the ones to keep by your side, always and forever.

How to make decisions

Indecisive? Don't worry you are not the only one. Many of us fall victim to the lack of certainty when concerning various aspects of our lives. Whether it is to pick a life partner, choose a career path or order lunch, it sometimes feels like an overwhelming abundance of choice that results in our inability to pick just one of the options. Below are my tips for getting you through the confusion: 1)    Weigh up how you would feel about this decision if you were a parent or an older version of yourself. 2)    Would you be proud to admit that you did it? If the answer is yes, then go ahead with your plan. 3)    What do the hoards say and what do your closest friends say? Try to blur out the masses and listen to those that know you best. They will steer you in the right direction.

Making mistakes is natural

When i read this quote as part of a promotional email this morning, it really resonated with me. I feel that a lot of us want to take steps in life that are perfectly planned, executed and which always deliver the desired result. As many will have experienced, this wishful thinking doesn't always occur but i think the quote below explains exactly why it's ok to make mistakes and in fact that mistakes are what make up our lives in the first place! "A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing". - George Bernard Shaw
