Do you bring kindness and generosity; or contempt, criticism, and hostility,to Your relationship?
Or scanning them for what they are doing wrong and criticizing?
Versus respecting them and expressing appreciation?
It's kind of obvious when you think about it, and the data backs it up.
Scientific research of thousands of couples was conducted over long periods of time, since the 1970's, by hooking them up to the equivalent of lie detectors to monitor their blood flow, heart rate and sweat, and then monitoring them in their everyday interactions.
Those couples that are constant stressed out physiologically, waiting to attack, or be attacked, are doomed to failure. While those that feel calm and connected with each other have long lasting successful relationships.
Be kind and generous, always.
To your success,
Trevor Long
