So there is an amazing book called “The Like Switch” by Jack Schafer.  It describes how people come to like one another.  He came up with a formula called “The Friendship Formula”

Friendship = Proximity + Frequency + Duration + Intensity

Is it any wonder why we felt such a deep connection during the process?  Super intense, close proximity, for a long duration, every day!!!!!!!!!!

And if you feel you have lost some of that since we left, and you are possibly thinking you want some of it back....consider where your efforts are with regard to the friendship formula.

It’s a game changing way to self evaluate and kick yourself into gear on reaching out to the people you care about.  Remember, just because you don’t see someone everyday, just increase the efforts in one of the other categories to compensate.  In the end it may have the same effect on your friendship!

Ok off my soap box for the day.  Much love to all.

Thank You,
