"Don't wait for people to be friendly, show them how."
People tend to live their lives based on the theory of "reacting." We wait to see how to respond to a situation, rather than taking the initiative to make things happen. This is a passive approach to life. In choosing to simply react, you relinquish your power to control your destiny. Instead of waiting to see what THEY do, why don't you show them what YOU do? Make eye contact, smile, and introduce yourself, because friends are made in the unlikeliest of places. Every face has a name and a story to go with it. Take a moment of your time to indulge in a story other than your own every once in a while, for it is only when you reach out to the world that it reaches out to you.
"You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you."
