The Gottmans (Great marriage/relationship scientists), instruct us to wish less, want more. One of their favorite disciplines is to have couples be very clear with each other regarding what they want. They tell the couples to stop wishing the other would give them what they want without asking for it. Hence, wish less/want more.
I’ve recently been anding this thought. I remind my clients (and myself) to “will more.” We are all quick to want more from those we love. Slow to will ourselves to becoming more loving ourselves. Your “I wills” are your principles. Remind yourself to wish less/want more, and will even more. I will live hard/love harder. God, help me focus here not so much on her. God, help me.
Live hard. Love harder…
