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.Listen to the full episode here -Spotify- https://g2ul0.app.link//Gaez34R3kObApple -https://g2ul0.app.link//WupI4dX3kObWatch the Episodes On Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/%20TheDiaryOfACEO/videosSimon: https://simonsinek.com/Learn more about your ad choices.
