My Friends Inspire Me

My friends give me hope and open my eyes to more opportunities.

I learn from their example. I watch how they deal with challenges and pursue their ambitions. The experiences of my friends are often more relatable than what I see on TV or read in a magazine. We have so much in common.

I tell myself that if they can do it, so can I.

I stumble upon new ideas as we talk about our lives. Listening to their stories fuels my imagination. I realize that I am in control of my decisions. I trade in old habits for more constructive approaches.

Drawing upon their love and concern makes me feel secure. I find the courage to open myself up to taking risks and making changes. I strengthen my family. I use my friends as role models for happy marriages and wise parenting. I observe their successes and adapt them to my own circumstances.

My friends and I visit the gym together. We encourage each other to order something nutritious when we eat out.

My friends encourage and support me on my career path.

I fill my leisure time with enriching activities with my friends. I join them for a season of ballet performances or a semester of cooking classes.

Today, I build my motivation as I spend time with my friends. Their inspiration helps me to enjoy more happiness and fulfilment.
