The Friendship Audit is a comprehensive assessment tool that provides clarity on your current social health and creates a roadmap for improvement. Think of it as a performance review for your social life.
This isn't about judging yourself or feeling bad about your current situation. It's about getting an accurate baseline so you can make strategic improvements.
The audit examines five key dimensions:
1. Quantity Assessment
How many relationships do you have at different levels of intimacy? This isn't about maximizing numbers—it's about understanding your current social topology.2. Quality Evaluation
How satisfying and supportive are your current relationships? A few high-quality friendships outweigh dozens of superficial connections.3. Diversity Analysis
Are your friendships clustered in one area of life, or spread across multiple domains? Diversification reduces social risk.4. Maintenance Review
How well are you nurturing existing relationships? Many people are better at making friends than keeping them.5. Growth Potential
Where are the opportunities for deepening existing relationships or forming new ones? This reveals your highest-impact actions.
