The tools you need for the Situations You Encounter
Healthy relationships are not born they are made by people like you that realize they need to learn, practice and refine the skills needed to improve and enhance their relationships. Contrary to popular myth ‘love at first’, ‘soul mates’, or ‘happily ever after’ are a very narrow snapshot of true relationships. This applies to friendships as well as romances. It is the quality of time between ‘love at first sight’ and ‘happily ever after’ that matters. The first step is to become aware that we may in fact have ȧ part in our relationship problems. The next step is to realize we are lacking some skills that would make interacting with others easier. This is especially true in the relationships with those we are closest to emotionally. The third step is to figure out the skills we need by evaluating the ones we have and why they are on occasion failing us. Fourth, discovering what skill or skills might be more effective. Fifth, experimenting with and practicing these newer skills until they become natural to us.
