Planting the Seed.

How do people know each other?

Does it just happened all a sudden without any actions?

I do believe that relationships are formed by the action of one to another. Yes, no doubt some relationship might just happened all a sudden but I strongly feel that most relationships are created with the direct action by one to another.

Today I am planting as much seed to create trees. Every person I meet is a potential friend. Everyone has their own way of behaving and not everyone can be approached using the same method. That is a challenge.

It is very rewarding if we manage to have a network of friends. Obviously trust is very important in a relationship let alone partnership. After getting through the first hurdle, it is important to be attentive and also to inculcate good behavior and trust.

You are able to rely on friends when we are down or in trouble. That is the power of making friends. There is one exclusion, we must not make use of our friends just for the benefit of ourselves. We must create a synergy that makes the friendship last so there is no misunderstanding. Reward a friend after he or she had helped us. It can be a small gift or some food.

No man is an island. We are social beings and we must interact with people. It is alright to be silent sometimes but we have to show initiatives so that others know that we are taking notice of what they are saying. It is alright to give your feedback to another so that both parties can learn and to improve. A good friend is a criticizer and a good listener.

We must also be sensitive with people around us. The actions we do or the body movements are important so that we do not offend another party. It is important that we have a proper posture when we sit or stand so that we respect the other party when we are talking or listening to them.

Last but not least is being confident. Just give your best and it is alright to admit that we don't know certain things and keep things simple. We should learn to curb our enthusiasm.
