Much has been written about the many facets of building positive relationships with others, so that we will be happier, more fulfilled, and feel supported and connected. In fact, while researching this topic I found so many stories and articles with great advice from both experts and laypersons alike that it was hard to choose which ones to use for this issue of Motivated.

The material I finally picked covers a number of different aspects of building good relations with people. I hope that the articles will contribute to creating positive connections with those that cross your path, and those you interact with on a daily basis. After all, when we create a positive connection with someone else, that person in turn will be more motivated to make positive connections with yet others, and ultimately create a larger chain of events that can positively influence society as a whole.
