KEYS TO A SUCCESSFUL RELATIONSHIP Can’t find your soul mate? Tired of dead end relationships? Is your marriage lacking a connection? Well it’s time to do something about it. Relationship does not just mean dating or marriage either. Relationships are between yourself and co-workers; other family members; and friends. First of all you need to learn what type of suggestibility you are and then learn to recognize your “natural opposite”. Unions that are formed with “natural opposites” tend to be stronger unions because your weakness is your partner’s strength; your strength is your partner’s weakness. This makes for a great balance in the relationship and keeps people from competition with each other. Once you have learned how to recognize your “natural opposite” you will find that relationships will be more successful and not as difficult to keep going. Secondly, it is important to learn the way your partner recognizes when they are loved. We all have our own way that we recognize that we are cared for and loved. There are five different love languages. They are: verbal appreciation; quality time; gifts; acts of service; and physical touch. Which one is yours and try to determine which is your partner’s. It is usually easy to pick out your own because that is how you also try to show your loved one that you care. Unfortunately, your language of love may not be the same and you are doing things that really don’t relate to your partner. Thirdly, try and learn how your partner communicates. Using Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) techniques people take in information 5 different ways: Visual; Auditory; Kinesthetic; Olfactory, and Gustatory. Make sure you are speaking your partner’s language. Fourthly, there are several keys to a successful relationship. 1. Like each other…now this sounds too simple, but it is possible to love someone and not like them. Ask yourself what qualities does that person have that allows you to like them? 2. Trust….it is impossible to have a lasting relationship with someone you can’t trust. 3. Respect… Again, you can not have a long term relationship with someone you don’t respect…do they their life in an honorable manner? Loss of respect is quite often the underlying reason for a breakup? Do you request respect and give respect? 4. Good communication…Don’t fall into the trap of expecting someone else to read your mind. It is your responsibility to communicate your needs. 5. Good sex…sex should never be used to control or manipulate the relationship. Good sex is 10% of a great relationship and bad sex is 90%. Sex is usually the barometer of a relationship. 6. Similar interests…you must continuously create interests that bond and allow relationship to grow. 7. Separate interests…make sure they continue to cultivate separate interests to build your own self confidence and continue to make yourself interesting and vital. Don’t burden others with task of “fulfilling” you. If you are tired of not having a positive and supportive relationship in your life, perhaps now is the time to make a change. • Create the relationship of your dreams |
