3 kinds of false friends you must fire from your life It got me reflecting on the folks I’ve removed from my life over the years (not removed in the Mafioso sense – I mean ‘stopped interacting with’)‚ or those I’ve encouraged others to remove.

just dropped off my younger son‚ Andrew‚ for a five-day personal development seminar‚ and I welcomed the chance to remember a similar night six years ago. Andrew‚ I concluded‚ was fortunate.
