In a world where people don't have enough time for themselves, it is really difficult to find people who are willing to spare their precious time for you.
But, making friends is an art, an art which you can master.
Human beings in general have this tendency to live their life in a way where they take pride in doing something that is valuable.
People find it frustrating if at the end of the day they find out that what they have done is not useful in a way.
So, most people are really conscious about the time they invest in other people and activities. Still, a lot of people end up wasting their precious time on stupid people and unproductive activities.
To understand the art of making friends, we have to focus on the core functioning of human beings. They seek something that would add some value to their life in any way.
As a fellow human being, you can add three types of values to the life of others.
1. Work Value
2. Financial Value
3. Emotional Value
Depending upon the type of your personality and the kind of lifestyle you lead, you can definitely add one type of value to the life of people around you.
If you are someone who possesses great skill and has the ability to teach it to someone else, you can add work value to the life of others.
Or maybe you have an influential job and thus you can help someone get some kind of work done easily. That way you add some work value too.
If you are someone who is in the possession of some spare money, you can lend that to add financial value to the life of others.
If you are someone who possesses the ability to counsel people and is great at lending a shoulder to cry upon, you can add emotional value to the life of others.
Now is the time to identify your strengths and use them for your benefit.
But, before that, you will have to understand what the other person is seeking.
It would be really difficult to add financial value to the life of a rich person. It would be difficult to add any working value to the life of an influential person. It would be difficult to add emotional value to the life of an emotionally sound person.
So, be very careful with your first move. Do a thorough analysis of someone who is on your bucket list of friendships.
After successful research, use your strengths accordingly and start adding value to the life of that person.
Do not rush. Proceed gradually and step by step. Do not overdo it. Do not fake yourself. Do not lie.
Make sure to lay the foundation of your friendship on the pillars of trust and honesty.
If nothing works, get famous. For famous people, it's very easy to make friends.
If that also doesn't work, reincarnate yourself as a beautiful girl. That would definitely work.
