Okay %%FIRST_NAME%%, we know that having amazing friendships takes a lot of work and time on our part – so Why do we want to go to all the trouble and effort to have them?

What can you think about your current friendships; are they fun and enjoyable or do you tend to argue and fight?  One minute your friends, and the next your not?  Do you enjoy spending time with them or do you find yourself making excuses to avoid them or simply don’t answer the phone?

Everyone is different %%FIRST_NAME%%, and everyone brings something different to the table of friendship.  We each have our own qualities, and our own strengths and weaknesses.  Being friends with someone who possesses some qualities and strengths we admire can rub off on us, and vise versa.  Friendship is about each person enjoying, benefiting, and growing from the relationship.

I enjoy the comfort and security of knowing I have someone to lean on in times of need or for questions, etc.  I enjoy the pride of knowing that others feel they can come to me in their times of need.

I enjoy the pure fun and joy that comes with spending time with true friends.  It’s not so much the activity at hand – it can be Scuba Diving, Fishing, a BBQ or someones Birthday, or just hanging out playing Cards or Dominoes and enjoying the evening together, laughing and having a great time.

I enjoy the types of new experiences that come with friendships.  I enjoy what we each have to share and contribute with one another, and the special memories which it creates for each of us. 

Great friendships add a layer of joy to life that can’t come from anywhere else.  The laughter, the companionship, the connection, the pleasure that you get spending time with people you care about deeply.

I like the feeling I get when I pay someone a sincere compliment.  I also like the feeling that creates for them.

I enjoy the feeling I get when I’m able to help someone.  To contribute something that made their life better in some way.

I want to keep much closer contact with my special friends that are so far away.

These are my Why’s for putting in all the time and effort %%FIRST_NAME%% – what are yours?  Consider what you value most, and get that in your Abundance Blueprint.
