10 Benefits of Friendship
2. Learning to communicate- the more you hang out, the easier you to open up
3. Sharing ideas- your friends can often tell you how reasonable your ideas are, or what you might need to do to rework them
4. Building accountability- share your goals with your friends and they might force you to actually work towards your goals
5. Sharing stuff- when you and other build accountability back into relationships, the opportunity to lend and give freely opens up
6. Sharing friends- some friends are wonderful just because of the other friend you make through them
7. Learning new skills- as your connections grow, your friends will begin to teach you skills you never would have pursued or never known about
8. Inspiring other- as friends influence one another through their specific ideas and skills, inspiration starts to form
9. Discipling one another- once friends align at least some of their overall beliefs, they can feed off each other, teaching one another the details of life through a particular lens
10. Encouraging one another- we need the courage to follow through with what you already know/ we need the courage to get back up after you fall down
