Your friends should keep you smart—encouraging you to learn more, do more, be more. To keep up with them, to have a meaningful relationship where you are both on the same level, you must actively seek out knowledge and experiences. Together, you should help each other expand your intellect and progress together. Search for people who lift you up when you need it, rather than those who shut you down. Take the time to thank them for all that they have done for you.
