Do you participate in your relationship the best you could, or the best you would? Over and over again I hear the statement “well I’m doing the best I can, I’ve done my best” But when I look at the facts in the relationship, it becomes obvious that these people are doing the best they would do, and not the best they could do.
Doing the best you would do means that when one person defines relationships and how they are supposed to work, they are not always open to the other persons view and are not willing to accept other information such as how relationships really function successfully. Be careful that you are not disabling the impact of your partner.
In this video I talk about this idea of doing the best you could verses doing the best you would. Relationships thrive when you jointly choose to do the best you could do in order to make the relationship the best it can be. Watch this video blog post and let me know your thoughts.
