What if….

I have a friend who is incredibly kind, works hard to take care of her responsibilities and meet deadlines, and yet, has a very difficult time staying in touch with friends. It’s not that she doesn’t care; it’s that she just doesn’t have the time.

 

Another friend of mine was talking about her husband one day, and pointed out how frustrating it was to hear him talk to clients, work through very challenging problems in a calm way to create a solution, only to have him hang up and be very different with her. “Why can’t he treat me like he does his clients,” she asked. “I’d love that level of respect.”

 

Made me think of my own life, and the times when family members who have a reputation for being on time when it comes to work seem to always arrive 10 to 30 minutes late if it’s another family member who’s waiting.

 

And I have to admit, there has been times when I have taken advantage of a personal relationship with someone, giving myself permission to be late or even a bit disrespectful because I thought, “this person loves me, they’ll forgive me.”

 

For some reason it’s something I’ve been noticing quite a bit lately and it’s made me wonder:  What if we made a point to give the same level of respect – or better – to our closest loved ones? What might it mean to our spouse to be talked to rather than yelled at, at the end of a long, frustrating day? What would it mean to our children to know that they’re not only on your list of priorities (somewhere), but that they’re so close to the top that you’re actually getting in the car and going for that special time together you’ve been talking about for weeks?

 

What would it mean to you to fall asleep at night knowing that those you care about know how much you care?

 

There are different ways in which we may each be guilty of taking advantage of personal relationships in our lives to give ourselves permission to be less than kind at times. But what if…. ?

My Compass MAP Update

I’ve talked about the Compass Monthly Action Plan (MAP) programs before and I’m excited to announce that April’s MAP program content is based on my book, Who Am I? How to Answer the Single Most Important Question You’ll Ever Ask!

I’m excited to see it coming together! I received the companion workbooks this morning and will be helping train the coaches on the material this week. Compass has such an amazing team of professionals to work with – all of whom are there to help bring out the best in each other.

April’s theme is “Rediscover Yourself” and it’s got some simply, but powerful tools and tips that will help you jump into Spring and blossom!

Learn more about the Compass MAP program here.

Are you listening to March’s MAP? I am! Learning to nurture others without loosing ourselves is such an important topic, especially for women. We’re so good at taking care of everyone – except us!

We have a tendency to agree to support someone – friends, kids, significant others, colleagues, coworkers, etc. – and our hearts are in the right place. But before long we’re feeling overwhelmed, frustrated and resentful. But, it was our choice right?

This MAP is wonderful at bringing us back to that joyful place from where we agreed to be of support in the first place. It’s a step by step approach that’s simple and effective.
