"Evolve" Your Relationship in 2011
When you think of New Years, one of the first words that comes to mind is "resolutions" - lose weight, start exercising, save more money. Our clients talk about "relationship resolutions" - pay more attention to my marriage, be nicer to my spouse, have less conflict, communicate more.Sounds great, but the truth is that in relationships we don't resolve, we evolve. "Resolve" means settle an argument, solve a problem, make a decision; inherently, there is a beginning and an ending. "Evolve" is the gradual development of something into a more complex or better form.Relationship evolution is the never-ending, continual process of creating the head, heart, hormone connection through the ongoing actions and words exchanged between two people.Our goal for 2011 is to continue the evolution of our relationship with you, our relationship community, so that your relationship evolves into a stronger, more fully connected and healthier partnership.To serve you most effectively we need your help.
