Let me ask
you a question: – WHO ARE THE PEOPLE IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD? DO YOU KNOW
THEM? DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DO? ARE YOU AWARE OF HOW THEY CAN IMPACT YOUR LIFE? The neighborhood I’m referring to is
not so much about the family two-doors down the street, but the people around
you. I’m referring to the people you chat, text, talk with the most, WHO ARE
THESE PEOPLE? It’s time to do a ‘Neighborhood Watch’
Your Neighborhood Watch, it’s not what you think
The
National Neighborhood Watch website defines a neighborhood watch as “people living in the same area who want to make their
neighborhood safer…reduce crime and improve their quality of life…” (taken from https://www.nnw.org/what-neighborhood-watch)
To
improve YOUR quality of life you must do a Personal
Neighborhood Watch; assessing the people around you, taking notice of
how they currently impact your life. The intention of a Personal Neighborhood Watch is to be clear about where the
people in your life stand with you and you with them, so that you can set
proper expectations, reduce disappointments and see clearly the type of
relationships that are in your life. Your ultimate goal for doing a Personal Neighborhood Watch is to “…Improve YOUR quality
of life”
4 Stages (Categories) of Friends (There are 5, but I focus on 4)
- 4) – Acquaintance/Associate –
- (3) – Casual Friend – This is the person who can say “Yeah, I know you”
- (2) – Close Friend – This is the person who can say “I Understand You”
- (1) – Intimate Friend – This is the person who can say “I am CONNECTED to you”
Take the time to do a ‘Personal Neighborhood Watch’ to assess the people in your life; are they pushing you to be better or are they just as insecure as you are? Do they remind you of your dreams and push you to pursue them or do they remind you of ways ‘It will never work’? Be sure to listen to the podcast for coaching and breakdown of the 4 stages/categories for friends.
