We have been living under the pretense that technology will be able to make our lives better when in fact, technology has deprived us of interpersonal relationships. Communication with people in real time have been known to boost life expectancy and with that, it is important that you talk to someone in person every day of the week.
Gather family members around for dinner at least thrice a week and see the difference it makes within your family. Family members who share dinner are happier and are less likely to fall ill than those who eat alone.
Take the time to sort out all of your relationships with other people and remove those that are not beneficial to you. It will only sap the energy out of you and will make your life miserable. It is time to narrow down your friend's list.
Get in touch with your spirituality. Head back to church and see if there are people you missed talking to. Even if you are not religious, sitting an hour at the church listening to big words is enough to help you reconnect with other people and to yourself.
Take full advantage of technology. We have social networking sites and instant messaging sites that help you reconnect with relatives or even family members that are scattered throughout the globe. Take the time to talk to them on a weekly basis even if they can only be seen on screen.
A family will not be complete if there won't be a black sheep or someone who is always out of the loop. Regain your relationship with that person and you will discover things about yourself that you are not aware before.
Turn your workplace into a community of friends. We all know how stressful it is to work in an office full of angry people but when you turn your office into a place surrounded by friends, you get to lessen that burden. Take the initiative to bring officemates closer together.
Smile when you meet strangers in the elevator especially when you are heading to work. People who take the time to open themselves up to people usually get the reaction they want from others. So, when you smile, people smile back at you and it can be a start of something wonderful.
