CoachingTime to invest in yourself...
In our careers we are prepared to invest in ourselves and commit our time and energy to achieve our desired goal. Whether it be completing an MBA, developing our management skills or sacrificing our social lives! Why is it, in relationships we expect everything to happen naturally? Imagine if we knew what we know now about ourselves 10 years ago? I’m sure our relationships would have been very different! Yes, as with our careers, experience is always a great learning curve but how else can we develop ourselves to achieve our personal life goals too? Imagine if there was a way to fast track this learning curve – to reflect and define where we want to be and put a strategy in place to get there? What’s stopping you? Are there beliefs about yourself and others that are holding you back from getting what you truly want? Are you inadvertently placing obstacles in the path of your progression? Most of us are aware that our actions and choices are often fueled by unconscious drives that can result in a negative impact on our lives. Every one of us ultimately desires the same thing – to be happy and fulfilled in a healthy relationship that allows and supports us to reach our full potential as an individual and as a partnership. Yes we also want chemistry, physical affection, fun, great sex and companionship but without the support of shared values, beliefs, emotional intelligence and communication skills such relationships are likely to fizzle into nothingness or degenerate into negative and destructive cycles. Making it last... We want to find a great match but we also want our relationship to last. No one gets married thinking they’ll be divorced in a few years, yet currently 50% of marriages end in this way. And many serious relationships end before marriage is even considered. We dust ourselves off and rationalise that we just weren’t ‘right’ for each other or that commitment isn't for us! In many cases yes we may have been focusing on the wrong things and attracted someone not suited to us. In other cases we may have contributed to the end with destructive behaviour and inflexible opinions and ideals. All in all, we are likely to agree, that given the choice, we would prefer to avoid this in favour of a supportive, loving, passionate and lasting relationship. So why don’t we?
