13 分钟In this moment, world-renowned author, entrepreneur, and optimist Simon Sinek discusses the importance of maintaining meaningful friendships throughout your life. For Simon, strong friendships are essential because they provide a support system during tough times. He also says it is important for friendships to offer companionship during moments of joy and success. According to Simon, there are several health benefits of close relationships, highlighting that in Blue Zones - regions where people live past 80 years old - a sense of community is key. From an evolutionary standpoint, our bodies seem to be designed to foster connection. He points out that the heart is our most vital organ, and that thigh muscles helped us socialise with others in our communities. Simon highlights that friendships should be approached with intention, and that one of the best ways to nurture your friendships is by supporting others, particularly through acts of service.

Are you a good friend?
Are you a good friend to your friends?
Are your friends good to you?
You know, who do you.
Do you call people when you are stuck and down?
Or do you make TikTok videos by yourself?
Which you know and you get.
I mean, literally, people who are depressed make TikTok videos by themselves.
I don't know how many times they reshoot that either.
To post it, to get the validation for their feelings.
But to call a friend and say the same thing you're struggling with is actually more difficult.
Why doesn't the industry exist?
Because typically, and we take it for granted.
Yeah.
So the demand isn't there for those kinds of things.
But that's the problem, which is, I think the demand is there.
We don't realize it.
Right.
Like, we know that our relationships fail and our marriages fail.
So there's an entire industry to help us maintain better relationships.
