Do you feel like just another name on the list?
I have had someone ask me recently if I was just a “friend” collector. I guess that is a legitimate question. I have just added number 76 on my bodyspace. I guess there are a lot of people out there that just add people and never actually take the time to get to know them. My response… ask any of my friends. See if any of them feel as if they are just another name on my list or if I actually take an interest them.
I believe in order to be successful you need to surround yourself with successful people and people who are willing to take an interest in your success. I firmly believe that every time I encourage someone, I get encouraged. When my friends are successful, I feel successful. I truly want each of them to succeed…to reach their goals.
I promise you that each of my friends are important and I make sure I do what I can to encourage them. All seventy six will receive at least one comment from me each week. Sure it takes me almost an hour and half to go through all of them. But for me that is time well spent. It motivates me as well as them. How can I offer them anything if I don’t take the time to get to know them? I laugh with them. I cry with them. I pray for them. I celebrate with them. What more can you ask for from a friend?

The question is not whether you are a friend collector or not. The question is why the heck does he care if you are or not? We all know that you care deeply about each and every person you have on your friends list and you are inspiration to all of us. Just keep doing what you are doing!!!
