Social support and success

Social support and success

  • Social support was a far greater predictor of happiness than any other factor, more than GPA, income, SAT scores, age, gender or race.
  • Surrounded by people, big challenges feel more manageable and small challenges don't even register on the radar.
  • Our social support prevents stress from knocking us down and getting in the way of achieving our goals.
  • This thruth is sometimes difficult for many of us to accept, given how deep the ethic of individualism runs in our culture.
