I'm not talking about exercise more, eat right, get out of debt yadda, yadda, yadd. What are your relationship resolutions?
1.Be a better listener to my partner. I offer way too much advice and it starts to sound preachy even to me. Sometimes people just really need an ear and need to hear themselves talk things out for their own benefit. They are not looking for you to "fix" things.
2. Not try to shield others from failure or difficulty. People need to learn and make their mistakes to grow. Its hard to watch someone you love struggle, but sometimes that's the only right thing to do maybe.
3. Spend more time talking to my older brother. His thought processes remain a mystery to me, but he's my brother and I love him so I'm just going to try to be present with him (wherever he is at in his head :confused:).
