The Pyramid of Success (Friendship)

Friendship 

"Comes from mutual esteem, respect and devotion. Like marriage it must not be taken for granted but requires a joint effort."

Friendship is like having another family. Just like a family you should respect it and devote some with them. You should not take advantage of friendship, because it requires a joint effort. You can't just be the one calling all the shots without your friends consent. Having friendship can also help in the future. Let say one of you friends becomes an electrician he is more likely to give you a discount because of the mutual esteem for you. Friendships don't come easy, because both parties have to have trust in one another. You also need to choose your friends wisely as they can also influence you. People that do drugs, curse, smoke and immoral are not the people you want to hang out with. Many people that associate themselves with CTW's are more likely to be unsuccessful. It's like lyric I remember "Now look at you, you came a long way, but the thing is you went the wrong way"(J-Cole). Don't quote on that quote because I don't know if it's right or not, but it means to stay on the right track and not fall with the negative people in life.
