The quality of your experiences will be largely determined by the people you surround yourself with.

This applies to nearly every aspect of life:
Who you work with. 
Who you travel with. 
Who you start a business with. 
Who you choose to spend your life with.

Setting and achieving goals matters, but ultimately, it’s the relationships you build along the way that you’ll remember.
Not convinced?

Harvard’s 85-year-long study of human happiness determined that the secret of wellbeing can be summed up in five words: The quality of your relationships.

The First, Audit your circle
I know it sounds harsh, but not everyone should have front-row access to your life. Notice how you feel after time with someone. Do you leave feeling energized or drained? That’s your clue.

The Second, Less time on social media (ironic, I know)
Social media gives a false sense of connection. It’s fool’s gold—shiny on the surface, but lacking real substance. Deep connections are built through time spent together in person, not through pixels on a screen.

The Third, Plan memories
Yes, you can plan memories. Think about the best times you’ve had with your friends or family. What did those moments have in common? Plan more events like those—simple as that.

The Fourth, Seek out new interests
It’s never too late to try something new, and it’s usually the best way to meet like-minded people.

The Last, Schedule relationship time
The easiest way to tell if something’s a priority—is it on your calendar or not? You schedule work meetings and doctor’s appointments because they’re important. Why not do the same for catching up with a friend or calling a family member.
