AES51 Quality over Quantity

I just finished listening to Emma Chamberlain’s podcast anything goes, the title of the episode was “quality over quantity”. And I will be sharing my thoughts on the same thing. This is the link to the podcast episode if you want to check it out (https://open.spotify.com/episode/0YThGNgL46qBGNhPw4tds2?si=o7DRl8N2S1yh2bP4lsf7fQ&dl_branch=1) 

So, I am a big believer in quality over quantity. It can be applied in many different things, in many different situations. This kinda connects to my last atomic essay about choosing friends. Let’s just use that scenario as an example. Like some people like to have many friends, and that’s totally fine if that's your thing. But in my opinion, if the friends are not quality friends I won’t really be close with them. Like yeah having relations is a really good thing, but you don’t have to actually be good friends with every single person. I mean, I personally don’t have the energy to do that. So I prefer to have a small friend circle that is actually quality. 

Another example is hanging out of spending time with friends or family. For example, I rarely go out just to have fun with my friends, because I have other things to do. And I would prefer to finish my work first then I can be fully focused on hanging out and spending quality time. There’s a reason why it's called quality time. Because if I was hanging out with my friends but Im thinking of my homework that I really need to get done, that isn’t quality time. It’s like my body is there, but im not really there, im not being present. 

So yeah we can really apply quality over quantity in many aspects of our lives, and I think it's really helpful. I make many decisions using this quality and quantity concept. I think anyone can give this a try.
