KIP's tips on making friends
- 1. Take a genuine interest in others. Listen and talk to people you are around.
- 2. Be a giver, not a taker. A good friend is better at giving and helping you then in taking from you.
- 3. Be loyal. Be true to the other person and stick with them in the good, the bad, and the ugly.
- 4. Be a positive person. People will want to hang around more if you laugh and have fun together.
- 5. Appreciate the differences in others. We are all unique so take the time to learn from each other and what is different.
- 6. Build on common interests. What brought you together in the first place is what you should focus on to keep you together.
- 7. Be open, honest, and real. Be ready to hear what the other has to say and be honest with your feelings.
- 8. Repair mistakes. You are familiar with your friends strengths and weaknesses, so you know how to tear them down better than any others. No one is perfect.
- 9. Make time and show appreciation. Familiarity and comfort with someone can leave us forgetting to show gratitude. Don’t let the relationship become one-sided and only focused on yourself.
- 10. Don’t make assumptions. Don’t assume what your friends are thinking, check it out instead.
