It’s amazing how human connection can cure and satisfy so many of our needs.

We’re hardwired to be with others, to search out our tribe. We need that feeling that we are all here together, working towards a common goal, trying to make a difference.

In fact, research from Harvard found that strong relationships are the key to living longer and happier lives, with huge physical and mental benefits that magnify as we age.

I hosted another episode of our new podcast, One Path to Wealth yesterday. We were on-location in Paso Robles with two of my dear friends and clients, in a restaurant owned by another friend.

All of us together. Working in unison. Helping one another.

With no other reason other than to give each other the opportunity to share our gifts and spread the message to the world.

Incredible.

And I don’t care how much technology we have our how good it is, it’s not the same. Not even close. There’s no substitute for face-to-face meaningful human interaction, without all of the distractions and phones and such.

When you take time out of your day to be available or to help or just listen, the rewards are endless.

There’s simply no better way to spend your day or your time that fostering human connection.
