Why You Should Develop Your Social Skills
One's social muscle is often overlooked, and neglected. In this episode I discuss why it is important to prioritize the development of your social muscle, as much as we develop say our physical body, or even our brain and knowledge.
I believe this is important as many young people I see around me each day have underdeveloped social skills. This is understandable as the culture and society we live in today does not emphasize one-on-one social interaction. The amount of opportunities and connections that you gain by developing the social muscle is by far worth it to meet new people and make new friends. Many people turn down opportunities to develop their social muscle because they feel it would be awkward or uncomfortable. I hope by listening to or watching this you will feel inspired to put some work into developing your social skills.
