A guide to building real relationships that determine your happiness.

The ability to create and maintain relationships is, without exaggeration, the most important skill. All life is woven from relationships. Intimacy with people is the source of both true happiness and joy, as well as the deepest wounds and disappointments. Real relationships are the foundation of life satisfaction and longevity (scientifically proven by a Harvard study).

So what do we do to learn how to build relationships? How do we teach this to our children? There is no such subject in the school curriculum. We have to learn and teach from our own mistakes, adopting the less than successful experiences of our close circle. It's time to change that!

In the book 'Relationships: A Visual Guide to Love and Friendship,' we share the key principles of building healthy relationships. In an engaging infographic and illustration format, we answer questions that often plague teenagers starting around age 12:
- How to accept yourself and not depend on what others think
- How to be friends and trust
- How to understand your parents and maintain relationships with them
- What is the role of romantic relationships and when is it time
- How to find your tribe of those who understand and support you

In seven chapters, we cover all possible areas of relationships: family, friends, lovers, different groups, and the world as a whole. And we begin with the relationship with yourself as the foundation of all future relationships in life. This section is visually distinct from the others and is designed as a personal diary containing reflections, doubts, and discoveries.

It's never too late to learn how to build relationships, but the best time is childhood and adolescence, when social intelligence is actively developing and a person first formulates these questions, being open to answers. Don't miss it!
