Friend or Foe. Who is Your Real Friend? The Truth Will Blow Your Mind!
“A true friend is someone you can trust, and they have your best interest at heart.”
Friend? Or Foe? Who is your True friend? Who is your Real friend? Recently, my mentor questioned and kept me thinking. And I peeped into a different dimension that never crossed my mind, earlier.
Stay with me till the end, and you will also agree.
We always see Friend and Foe as completely different personas. Having different interests. In the exact opposite directions. We often think of our Friends as our dears. But narrate our Foe as an unfavorable person.
In fact, our Allies don’t bother us as much as our Foes do.
Why…?
Because we are afraid, our competitors will outperform us. Go ahead of us. Leave us behind in business. The thought will itself give us sleepless nights. So we keep track of our competitors. To keep the scores equal, we try to learn and improvise ourselves.
That’s why I say —
Foe is not just a foe. You don’t have to see them in a wrong way. Obviously, they may not have your best interests at heart. They will have their own.
That itself will force you to improve. By giving you sleepless nights. By intimidating you. By keeping you on your toes. And.., what is another quality of a true friend?
“A true friend is someone you can trust and they make you a better person.”
They may not have your best interest at heart. You may not feel comfortable with them. You cannot trust them. But surely, they will intimidate and force you to go the extra mile. And that itself will make you a better person!
Agree with me?
Who is your real friend? Friend or Foe?
Of course, Foe!
