Relationship Building Blocks
Relationships thrive when the participants focus on what is good and true. They believe in one another. This includes skills, talents, capabilities, ability to support and share, being kind and courteous, and acting from a base of integrity and strong values. They learn to see the best, develop the best, and expect the best.
Thank the people who matter most in your life. Use positive traits to describe how your life is different because of them. Stop and be grateful for what IS being done for you, and say so. Each of us feels better when noted for our worthiness and specialness.
Good communication seeks to connect through shared meanings plus the ability to create opportunities, influence and impact, and be empathetic to other people expressing themselves, whatever the topic may be. Have an open mind to other ideas. When emotionally speaking with someone, take time to recognize their personal style, background of experiences, cultural upbringing, and what their dreams and goals are.
When you allow access to innermost beliefs, values, thoughts, and feelings, know others will treasure these as gifts. Honor their wants and needs just as you would want them to do for you.
Being able to discuss concerns or issues and ask pertinent questions is easier when people are familiar with each other. Assistance is easier to ask for when people know you'll appreciate their efforts and acknowledge their part in the project. As people become more familiar with who you are, what the overall goals are, and what their part is in the overall scheme - they often become natural advocates. Combining efforts brings about effectiveness and efficiency and encourages enthusiasm.
Loyalty includes respect, integrity, reliability, support, having an open-mind, being part of a solution, and not embarrassing others (or you) with behaviors or words.
Behavior change requests is more pleasant when people choose to work together with harmony instead of focusing on what needs to be fixed. Creating an atmosphere in which positive feedback and specifics are used creates a scene to be open, energized, relaxed and responsible. It increases self-esteem and decreases insecurity. It encourages truthfulness rather than denial. The 'Sandwich Approach' is explained.
What’s the purpose of having fun in relationships? It encourages a higher level of contentment which leads to more laughter and joy overall. This frees your energy and thoughts to be more creative, more expansive, and more positive.That leads to more success in life.
A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart. Ones who are special provide a profound influence; the nurturing and support enable you to achieve a great deal more in life. Work and play together, be a healer, depend on one another. The energy and goodwill a well nurtured friendship generates may lead to surprising and delightful possibilities. A feeling of fulfillment is a result.
Know who you are before you try and know someone else - expecting them to understand you. What’s your attitude and how do you appeal to it and use it? Are you honest about your value and belief system and prove it through behavior? Treat people as they want to be treated.
Where do you meet like-minded people? One chapter offers several suggestions. People from different circles widen everyone’s reach and being involved in gatherings enables you to pick and choose and say no and yes whenever it suits your needs to do so.
Routines in and of themselves do not produce happiness, but they instill confidence and trust in the natural existence of the relationship. From these day-to-day comforts, people can move to a deeper realm of shared dreams and goals.
You may never appreciate fully how you changed and added to someone’s life so do what you can, when you can. Being cared for helps us enjoy more of everything that is good in the world which increases mood and morale.
