LEARNING TO COUNT

As children we learn to count. We count toys, days, years, money and all sorts of things that are important to us. It has been a powerful tool that helps us get through life. Counting can tell you what you have, what you don’t have and how much you need. Within a relationship these figures are vital. If you are brave enough to take the time to count the blessings and wonderful qualities you’ve been afforded through your relationship with your partner, you will then realize that you’ve got a lot to be thankful for. It will also remind you why this person is so important to you causing you to again value what you have. It will also tell you what you could potentially lose if you are not careful. Go ahead and count them. Do it now. You’ll be so glad you did.

When you do the math and find out what you don’t have, then you become privileged to what your relationship can be by adding in what it is lacking. The formula for this calculation is: You + Your Mate times Conversation on what you can do to make your relationship better = An awesome plan for a better relationship. Guys the ladies usually know exactly how to do this, so bravely dive right in. Of course all of this takes time, but believe me it is time worth taking.

In taking an honest introspective inventory of yourself you can come up with what and how much you truly need from your relationship. Too many people have no true idea as to what they need from a relationship. What’s worse is we either are afraid to ask or don’t know how or what to ask for. In many cases we are too often escaping or running from something or someone that we’ve never taken the time to know ourselves enough to know what we want prior to entering into a new relationship (see Blog Entry:  “WHY DO I ALWAYS CHOOSE THE WRONG PERSON”). Take time for you and do the inventory on whom you are and what you need. You’re worth it. 

When you learn to count and do the math you come out with some very interesting numbers.
