889. Five Ways to Be a Better Friend Without Stealing Time From Your Family or Your Business

Brian discusses a question Simon Sinek's recent commentary on friendship left him with: why do we build entire industries around romantic relationships and almost nothing around the friendships that carry us through life? Somewhere between building a business, raising a family, and filling a calendar, most people watch their closest friendships quietly go dormant — not through conflict, but through silence. Brian walks through five specific things anyone can start doing this week to go deeper with the friends they already have and build a few new ones, and he takes the objection head on: none of it requires giving up an evening, and none of it competes with family or work. Brian also discusses why the friendships you invest in end up protecting the people at home rather than taking from them, and closes with a single action item that takes about thirty seconds. -- Get on the list to receive Brian's monthly newsletter: https://nodaysoff.com/subscribe/ Tune in to this podcast every weekday morning for 10 minutes or less as Brian shares lessons and stories about how to make positive changes in your life and business, one day at a time.
