What kind of people do you want to surround yourself with? This year, next year or in general? This can be a very loaded question because the majority of the times you aren’t really in control of your environment & surrounding and the people that come with it.

PEOPLE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE
I think this point is obvious but surrounding yourself with people from all walks of life will not only give you valuable life lessons but will also shape your perspectives around so many different subjects.
I do think applying this in your life can be quite tricky depending on your age, place, job and where you are at life but once you realise that everyone you meet regardless of where they are from or how old they are, has something to bring then you can easily befriend and talk to anyone.

PEOPLE WHO MATCH YOUR STANDARDS
There is usually a negative connotation when people speak about standards or the standards they have in mind when it comes to others, but I don’t necessarily think it’s something unhealthy or dysfunctional. I think we should all have standards, especially when it comes to our friendships.
We often talk about standards in terms of romantic relationships but I think we should apply it to our friendships and the people we surround ourselves with rather than potential love interests. There isn’t a lot of things we are in control of which sometimes does include our environment but we do have the opportunity to build our own community.
If your standard consists of expecting people to be compassionate, empathetic and respectful then it’s not something you should compromise with because at the end of the day, those are the people who you don’t only surround yourself with but also spend your time with.

PEOPLE WHO LISTEN
As time passes, you will realise that many people speak but only a few listen, and I do think surrounding yourself with people who possess this quality is very important. Being heard doesn’t only mean that you’re being listened to but it also means that you’re being understood. There is nothing more heartwarming than a person remembering both the significant and insignificant things you talk about.
