00:00:00.000 | Spend time with the right people in the right way.
00:00:03.120 | And as we discussed last week in the annual review episode,
00:00:06.000 | we talked about people that are boat anchors in your life
00:00:08.040 | and bring you down,
00:00:08.880 | and it just really highlights how important it is
00:00:11.660 | to spend time with the right people.
00:00:13.220 | Time is such a limited resource.
00:00:15.200 | Sahil had this great blog post
00:00:16.900 | where he showed all these charts
00:00:18.300 | about how we spend time and how that changes.
00:00:20.400 | And if you look at the time you spend with family,
00:00:22.360 | by the time you hit your mid-20s, that's kind of gone.
00:00:25.280 | If you look at time you spend with friends,
00:00:27.120 | surprisingly, it also diminishes usually as you have kids.
00:00:30.160 | Time with your partner is actually relatively consistent,
00:00:32.880 | but your time with children chart
00:00:34.360 | was the really interesting one,
00:00:35.720 | where it peaks for most people in their mid to late 30s,
00:00:39.160 | and then it kind of falls off a cliff.
00:00:40.580 | And the amount of time you spend with your kids
00:00:42.280 | really goes down, which makes sense.
00:00:43.960 | You know, we probably can all imagine
00:00:45.360 | how much less time we spent with our parents
00:00:47.200 | as we went to college, as we moved out on our own.
00:00:50.000 | So the summary is to be mindful
00:00:51.800 | of who you spend your time with this year
00:00:53.480 | and prioritize relationships that energize you
00:00:56.000 | and distance yourself from negativity.
