The more crap I go through in this life the more I realize I cannot do it on my own. I would simply fail time after time at trying to get things done, accomplish goals, and see good done in the world by my own hands.
There’s a good chance you find yourself in the same shoes. You want to make a difference in this life you’ve been given, but sometimes you’re left wondering how in the world you’d like to go about doing it.
Here’s the reality we need to remember - The vehicle for thriving in this life and making a dent in this world happens through people. If you want to succeed in life, you have to succeed in friendships.

THE FIVE FRIENDS EVERY MAN NEEDS TO THRIVE IN LIFE 1. The Truth Teller 2. The Listener 3. The Sage 4. The Merciful 5. The Risk Taker How do you get these friends?If you’re anything like me, you may struggle to find each of these types of men in your life. But it doesn’t change your need for them. You need each of them, I promise you.
Some of the guys in your life will morph and take on different roles at different times. In my own life, most of the time these are all separate men. I have identified their gifts and I seek out a friendship. I don’t always have each of these roles filled, either. But I am always seeking them out.
If you want to thrive in life and make a dent in this world, it begins with relationships. It begins with these 5 types of men that will help form and shape you into the man you want to become.
