JAKARTA - In this life, the presence of other people certainly has a sufficiently big meaning for you. Especially if that figure is always present not only during good times but also during bad times. This ever-present figure can be called a support system.

A support system is someone who is considered very close to you. Usually, the figure of the support system is a friend, partner, or family who is trusted to continue to provide support in happy conditions and to help during difficult times. The support system is the person you usually look for the first time, especially when you are in a critical situation.

A support system does not only build but encourages you to become a better person. Its presence will have a positive impact on life. In addition, there are still some positive impacts of the presence of a support system in our lives. The following are some included:

Help to make a tough person

The presence of a support system in your life helps you to be a more open-minded figure towards yourself. Apart from yourself, people closest to you are also able to change your thoughts about yourself so that from there, you can grow up to be a more mature, strong, and resilient person in facing any situation in the future.

Provide a sense of security and comfort

When you are under pressure, the support system will always be there to provide a sense of security and comfort. Problems that occur in life can be handled calmly because you feel you can share stories with this person.

Sharing stories with people you trust can make you more relieved because the burden seems to be reduced after telling stories with the support system.

Help to give consideration

In life, there are so many things that need consideration, and that feels heavy sometimes. The support system figure can be a place to help you with consideration.

Suggestions from people closest to you will help you because they can assess your condition more objectively.

Everyone must have at least one person who can be trusted. If you feel like you don't have them, it's probably just you who aren't aware of their existence. If you've got one, don't forget to always be grateful for the presence of people who always become the support system in your life.
