High-Performance Friends & Family (3😍)

Question 1

Categorize your relationships.

Answer 1

1. Read Brendon’s “The Charge” book.
2. Maintenance friends are those you call maybe once a year – normally old friends.
3. Growth friends are those you cultivate by staying in touch and having adventures with long-term.
4. Release the guilt about deciding who’s really important in your life.
5. Choose the people in your life – friends and family – who you really want to grow with. Spend time with those you truly connect to and see a future with.

Question 2

Schedule yearly adventure trips.

Answer 2

1. To live a flourishing life, schedule time each year to bring together your growth friends and family on separate trips – a trip w/ each group.
2. These trips don’t have to be long or extravagant which means they’re 100% reasonable to do.
3. Your family and friends bring life to you more than anyone else, but you need to cultivate these relationships.

Question 3

Win the SOs.

Answer 3

1. “To win in relationships with family and friends you have to win the significant others.”
2. Too few people take the time to learn about the passions, needs and backgrounds of their friends and family’s SOs. To create a real sense of family in life, you can’t ostracize your core circle’s extended families.
3. Learn your growth circle’s SO’s birthday and other important occasions.
4. When you celebrate the lives of everyone in your growth circle, you create an even closer knit group.
