Relationship Help

By . Posted on .

I find, that at this stage a good coach often rec­og­nizes that the
only per­son who can make a dif­fer­ence in a rela­tion­ship is the one
who wants to keep it, the one who seeks help. There­fore, why bother
with a destruc­tive party at all. Focus on and give rela­tion­ship help
to a per­son who is com­mit­ted to the rela­tion­ship, the premise here
being that a) peo­ple REACT to each other and b) no one can change any­one else with­out their consent.

So, if you want to keep the rela­tion­ship, you first need to see
your rela­tion­ship in another con­text by hav­ing insights about what
your part was in the rela­tion­ship break­down. Once you see that, the
point of view about your rela­tion­ship changes and your behav­ior
con­se­quently changes. When your behav­ior changes, your part­ner will
react to THAT changed behav­ior and, voila,
things turn around and a new rela­tion­ship is cre­ated. There­fore, if
you think you may need help with your rela­tion­ship do not waste time
try­ing to fix it your­self because if you knew how, your
rela­tion­ship would not be where it is now.

Relationship Repair

By

How does one go about repair­ing a rela­tion­ship? We know how to repair other “things”, like cars, equip­ment, house, clothes and what­not. The ques­tion arises as far as rela­tion­ship repair is con­cerned, is a rela­tion­ship a “thing”? As I men­tioned in my pre­vi­ous posts, rela­tion­ship, although a noun, should not be treated as a thing but as a verb, ... Read more

Do women have an agenda?

By

Do women have an ulte­rior motive when they start a relationship? Oh, yes they do! Now, let’s see how this works. I under­stand that it is a gen­er­al­iza­tion, but we are gen­er­ally either men or women, so this would apply to all of us to a larger or smaller degree whether we are aware of it or not. Every­one knows what a man’s agenda is, at least at ... Read more

AM I ATTRACTIVE ENOUGH?

By

You are and you are not. It depends on to whom you are talking and what you mean by attractive. Why do we play this “attractive” game when we don’t know what we want to achieve by trying so hard to be attractive? When you make yourself attractive do you want to attract everyone or most people, or just one particular person? Many would say something like: “I am ... Read more
