Turn Your Struggles Upside Down
Manage episode 320212247 series 3227458
Think of sharing your struggles with your spouse as an investment in your marriage.
It’s not about piling on to your partner’s problems…
It’s about two people and their combined strength, overcoming challenges together, in order to improve their relationship and raise their quality of life.
We each have our own problems. You’ve got a “boulder” in your way and so does your spouse.
Alone, it’s likely that neither of you can move those out of your way. Assuming you can, you’d most likely have spent more time and energy getting the job done (needlessly).
If you worked together, removing one obstacle after the other, you’d both be free from your burdens in no time!
The problem is that a lot of couples aren’t inclined to share their struggles for fear of piling on to their partner’s troubles.
(Because who wants to do that?)
Though the intention is good, the consequence of keeping your problems to yourself are less likely to be.
In keeping your problems to yourself, you take away the opportunity for your partner to help you out, create a stronger bond with you, and strengthen your marriage.
Life may be difficult, but when we can do the hard things with people who genuinely love us and care for us, we give ourselves (and our partners) a better chance to endure hardships.
The question is: where do you begin?
How do you turn struggles upside down? What are creative ways to turn bad experiences into good ones? How can couples effectively tackle each other’s problems?
Tune in to learn more about sharing your struggles with your partner, turning bad experiences into date night, and improving your relationship to benefit your business and marriage.
