Only with good psychological quality can we have good work efficiency, but now with the acceleration of the pace of social life and the increase of work pressure. There are so many indistinguishable things between people that we are afraid of the title of "friend". So, what kind of friends are real friends and what kind of friends do people need in their life?
American writer Parr pointed out, "Don't expect a close friend to bring you everything you need." Another writer, Tom Lath, believes that the following eight kinds of friends are essential.
Achieve your friends
They will continue to inspire you and let you see your strengths.
Such friends can also be called mentors. They are not necessarily your teachers, but they will have rich experience in some fields and can often provide you with many suggestions in career, family, interpersonal communication and other aspects. Having this kind of friend in your life will become your biggest psychological support, and will often become the "idol" who can "control" you.
Support your friends
Always defend you and praise you in front of others.
This kind of friend can be described as "you help me, I help you". They encourage each other and make each other a stepping stone for the growth of each other. In the process of a person's growth, the support and encouragement of friends are the most precious. When you encounter setbacks, such friends can often help you share some of the psychological pressure, and their trust is just your "tonic".
Like-minded friends
They are similar to your interests and are the people you are most likely to get along with.
With them, you will have telepathy, commonly known as "tacit understanding". You will often feel touched because your thoughts and words are similar to them. Communicating with them will help you continue to self-identify. You can share your interests, life goals or preferences with them. This solid feeling of "sharing" will give you a sense of psychological security, because with them, you can more easily achieve your dreams and grow happily.
A matchmaking friend
After meeting you, I will introduce you to like-minded people soon.
This kind of friend is a "helpful" friend. When you are proud, they may not be seen much; When you are frustrated, they will appear in front of you in time. They are always willing to give you the most realistic support, let you see hope and opportunity, and help you get positive psychological hints continuously.
Friends who cheer you up
Friends who are fun and can relax you.
Some friends, when we have worries and troubles, the first object we want to talk to is them. Such friends will be good listeners and let you relax. In front of them, you have no psychological pressure. They can always let you out of your "depression" and let you regain your balance.
An eye-opening friend
It can expose you to new ideas and new opportunities.
Such friends are also essential to life. They are your "encyclopedia". This kind of friend has a wide range of knowledge, vision and interpersonal connections, which will help you gain many different psychological feelings and make you a person who stands high and sees far.
Friends who guide you
Be good at helping you clarify your ideas, and go to them when you need guidance and advice.
This kind of friend is a "guiding light". Everyone has difficulties and needs. Once it is difficult to solve them on their own, such friends can always consider your problems in the most timely and serious way and give you the most appropriate advice. When you are anxious and confused about your choice, you might as well talk to them, which may help you better straighten out your emotions, understand yourself and clarify your direction.
Accompany your friends
Always be the first to tell them the news, good or bad. They are always with you.
This kind of friend's heart is as broad as the sea and mountains. Whenever you find them, they will treat each other warmly and support you consistently. They are friends who can make you feel satisfied and calm. Sometimes they don't need too much language. They just accompany you silently and can calm your mood.
