Be supportive.

Help uplift your friend in their time of need. If your friend wants to achieve a worthy goal such as losing weight, giving up smoking, or taking up a new skill, offer them your whole-hearted support. Tell them it's a good idea and go out of your way to provide them with the information or assistance they need.

• For example, if your friend wants to lose weight, you can help by not indulging when you're around them and tempting them. Heck, you could join them!
