I think the best friendships are those that can stand the test of time, where the friendship is based more on who you are than on what you do or what you have.

Saying no isn’t easy, but it’s a required skill if you wish to have any degree of focus in your life. If you say yes too often, you’ll likely fall into the common trap of saying yes to the good while simultaneously saying no to the best.
