Do your friends actually like you? Hmm…that’s a good question. I haven’t given it much though, how about you? I know when I was a child (adolescent) this question was probably a very compromising question. Growing up trying to fit in and all. Personally, I think I’m way over the depth of that mindset.
My pops passed something on to me early on. He said something to the affect of if you can count your friends on one hand, then that’s saying something.I remember him asking me who my friends were and I’d get stuck after MAYBE naming no more than 3 people. Today that number is honestly around 2.
I know today we use words like love and friend so loosely. I understand the social media concept, but it’s probably a false sense of security for so many people. They should probably say contacts instead of friends and then let the user self identify friends and family.
Now on one hand, there are probably people out there that genuinely like us, but we don’t really know because we have not met them in real time or haven’t developed report. Then on the other hand there are people in the cut (social media and real time) that claim to like us and straight up don’t. Probably just waiting for us to fall or fail.
So are we back to square one? I think so…we simply do not know how people feel. If I were a betting man I’d honestly cut through all of this typing, writing, and stinking thinking and say…no more than 5 % of each individual’s sphere of influence likes or cares for them.
Now if we are talking about business that doesn’t change very much because the bottom line is about the mission or the vision. Liking your boss or work colleagues is a good look, but not requirement.
If you happen to have a likable work situation or business arrangement…once again in my opinion…who can ask for anything more!
