We get to choose who we work with, whether that’s clients or customers or friends. This is both a privilege and burden, put overtime we can develop a keener sense of who we want to be around and how to pick them or attract them.

I heard someone say recently that people can be friends for a night, a season, or a lifetime. And all can be valuable in their own way. It’s aiming to get it right that can be the challenge. But it is a first step to recognize that it is a choice.
