Nothing incredible is accomplished alone. You cannot isolate yourself. No matter how stubborn, how confident you are, you need people to help you, to push you. You need others to help you, and you need to help others. With the right team, you can form a web of connections to make the seemingly impossible practically inevitable.
Here is a list of people you need to have in your life to be a happier, more successful person :
- A Cheerleader – The cheerleader is the person in your life who thinks you are amazing. They cheer you on and believe in everything you do. My cheerleader are my parents.
- The Pusher – A pusher in someone who pushes you to be the best you can be. They make you question life, your choices, your direction. My pushers are my close friends.
- The Loyal Confidant – This is the person who loves you and will always be there to hear what’s on your mind; the good, bad and ugly. Having someone in your life that you know you can go talk with and won’t judge to share your conversation is a must. My loyal confidant is my sister.
- The Energizer – Energizers are those people who have an infectious zest for life. Not only are they optimistic but they encourage you to dream big. Energizers leave you laughing, inspired and filled with amazing positive energy. My work is my energizer.
- The Mentor – A mentor is someone who has already done what you are trying to do and is successful. They can guide you down the path letting you know what has worked and failed for them, helping you avoid any mistakes that might slow you down. I have multiple mentors in my life, gratitude to all of them for their patience.
- An Adventurous Sidekick – Your sidekick is there when you are ready for any adventure. It is easy to get stuck in your routine and your sidekick is there to nudge you into trying new things, pushing through your fears and boundaries and is a great accountability partner. I am blessed with a friend who pushes me to chill often.
- The Best Friend – Your fiercest defender, your loyal confidant, your place for the honest truth. You might have one, or maybe a few. Your best friend is the one person that knows everything about you and loves every bit of your anyways. I want to become my own best friend even though I have good contenders to fill up this place.
- The Funny (Crazy) Friend – The funny friend never ceases to make you laugh. When you’re feeling down they always manage to say one thing that is goofy just to make you smile. Yes, I am blessed to have multiple friends like these…haha.
Life is very long and you need your team. Do you have your team yet?

This is a really good list. I’m going to print this list out and start acknowledging and hunting. The last two years of lockdowns and isolation have had a big impact on my friends and I need to expand my horizons a little.

pruning’ friends has been so common during the pandemic
People have become ‘more insular and bonding-oriented’ amid Covid, and now many aren’t sure how to start rebuilding their social lives

I attended a livestream about how covid had impacted young people about halfway through 2020 I think and it said that people have gravitated towards their immediate and close family and the extended networks have dropped off. I certainly found that true in my circle. It’s hard for single people who might be left out of such circles especially with people working from home. It was hard for others being stuck in the house with the family for so long too, although that wasn’t our experience.
I am definitely noticing people are socially rusty and some are really quite awkward. I’ve never kn0ow so many self-proclaimed introverts. I’m sure they were there before but maybe stayed more quietly in the corner. People seem to have become more extreme versions of their former selves. The introverts more introverted and the extroverts more extroverted. Maybe people can’t be bothered covering up who they are anymore. You can take me or leave me. What do you think?
Best wishes,
Rowena

The Covid-19 pandemic has reshaped our personal relationships in unprecedented ways, forcing us to live closer together with some people and further apart from others. Life in lockdown has necessitated close, constant contact with our families and partners, but social distancing measures have isolated us from our friends and wider communities. In other words, nobody has time for meaningless things anymore.
