I was part of a Christian business owners group for 12 years.
We met once a month. We texted in between.
I'm not in a group like that right now. I miss it.
When it was there, I heard myself think, got honest feedback from people who knew me, and carried less on my
own.
It's Movember, so here's something worth sitting with.
Surveys keep finding more men with no close friends than 30 years ago. One often-cited survey put it at 15%, up
from 3% in 1990.
I get how it happens. Work. Kids. Busy. We text 'we should grab lunch' and never do.
Founders who build alone get tired in a way nobody sees.
So this week: text one guy. Put a real lunch on the calendar.
Who are you texting?
