5 Secrets to Creating A Great Relationship

Image
It is a cliche to say that relationships are hard and need to be worked on daily.   It doesn’t mean that the sentiment is untrue, but a fundamental law of our nature. Individual people are as unique as anything can be in the vast and diverse Universe. For two individual people with their own goals and priorities to hitch their destinies together and pull in the same direction for decades is no small feat of endurance. It requires a few things in abundance to complete that journey to its inevitable end. Much of our society views relationships as either disposable or possessing an expiration date. Couples who stay together to the end view their relationships as forever and irreplaceable. But, how do you build a relationship that lasts forever? HERE ARE FIVE ‘SECRETS’ TO A GREAT AND LASTING RELATIONSHIP: 1. TRUST If you have ever watched a child build an elaborate building out of wooden blocks or some contraption out of Legos, only to smash it apart in a second of gleefu...

5 Things Everyone Should Talk About On Their First Date

Image
First dates can be nerve-wracking. What do you wear? Will you live up to your online photos? What the hell do you talk about without sounding like a stupid fool? I personally love being nervous and anxious and excited when I go on a first date. Meeting new people is so exciting especially when you're almost primed to try and find out if you're going to love getting intimate with this person or not. But sometimes nerves can get in the way, and you'll unfortunately find yourself talking ad nauseam about your childhood rock collection. Thankfully, these five pointers will help guide you towards successful first date conversations. 1.Discussing Travel is a billion times better than discussing movies. Anyone and everyone loves movies, all right. But do you really want to hate your first date when they tell you with a straight face that 'Transformers 2' is a good film? Studies show that couples who discuss movies on the first date are half as likely ...

3 POSITIVE CHANGES YOU EXPERIENCE WHEN YOU ACTUALLY START THINKING FOR YOURSELF

Image
Logical thought is one of the main traits that distinguish us humans from other animals. The majority of people, however, don’t make full use of their thinking capacity, mainly because of the conditioning that they had to undergo when they were growing up, which has made them fear thinking. Here are the three main reasons why people are afraid to think: 1. THINKING BRINGS CHANGE Thinking can make us reconsider our way of living, allowing us to see things from different perspectives, and helping us find ways to overcome obstacles that we might be facing — in short, it can change our lives to the better, if used wisely. Although  change is a necessary part of spiritual growth , many people are afraid of it, being strongly attached to their past — or rather, their ego — that they identify themselves with. Hence they choose not to think in order to prevent any change from happening, holding on their ego so hard, not wanti...

Why People Get Stuck In Life

Image
We have all experienced a rut in our lives, whether that rut was a relationship we knew was bad for us or going nowhere in a dead end job we couldn’t afford to leave. Some people sacrifice to break out of that rut. They recognize that to stay there is a death sentence for their dreams and desires. For others, though, getting out of that rut or hole is not so easy. But the reasons they remain stuck where they are is painfully obvious to those who have escaped it. They gave up. They accepted their lot in life and blame their lack of movement forward on others. They have not realized that if they want to move forward, they have to push. They have to push themselves to find a way out. They have to push obstacles out of the way and they have to push their own dreams forward. HERE ARE SOME REASONS WHY PEOPLE GET STUCK IN LIFE: THEY ACCEPT THEIR SITUATION Some people just accept their lot in life and do nothing to change it.  They have been beaten down so much trying to get out...

11 Relationship Tricks That Make You Fall In Love Again

Image
THESE ARE 11 WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR RELATIONSHIP NO MATTER WHAT: 1. TURN OFF ALL PHONES (OR AT LEAST KEEP THEM ON SILENT WITH VIBRATE MODE OFF) Imagine the setting: You somehow managed to get a reservation at the swankiest restaurant in town.  You have ordered the oysters, the chateaubriand for two, the $50 bottle of wine, everything is just right. Then your date gets a phone call and they are talking bla blah blah for a while, slurping in the oysters while they talk. When they do hang up the phone, it seemingly becomes superglued to their hand and they never look up from the thing. Before you know it, the waiter asks for dessert and they ask for one to share, all the while magically spellbound by their iPhone 7. Cinema rules should apply here, ladies and gentlemen. Not only is it rude to not pay attention to the person you are with, it is a serious mood killer. 2. GOING TO BED AT THE SAME TIME This is intimacy in true form. Going to bed at the same time is aki...

Money can't buy everything: read this little story

Image
Once upon a time a son of a very busy mom asked from his mother “mom, how much do you earn for an hour?” mother answered “I get 20$ per hour honey, why did you ask so?” but the kid didn’t answer that. He asked from his mother again “mom, can I get 10$?” Mother felt a little anger but she gave him the money and asked “why do you need the money for?” The little kid didn’t answer that too and he ran into the room. Then he came back with a little box in his hands and mother wondered why.  The boy came back to his mother and asked again, “mom, please give me 1 $” Mother felt very angry with the son and shouted at him “why a little kid needs this much money? We’ve given you everything but you still asking for more money” The boy listened and said nothing. Anyhow mother gave him another 1$.  Then the little boy opened the box and took out some money and said, “here mom, now I got 20$. It took a long time to collect this money. Take this money. Give this to your boss ...
