The Premise
Basic spring cleaning techniques involve removing clutter, organizing, scrubbing and polishing. We all know, getting started is the hardest part, yet in the end, we usually feel a whole lot better about our environment and ourselves. It is possible to apply these same simple methods to improve our relationships. Any spouse, romantic partner, friend, family member, boss or employee can immediately improve the quality of their relationships by following these four spring-cleaning basics:
- remove the clutter (identify limiting beliefs)
- organize (acknowledge and prioritize your needs)
- scrub what’s dirty (take responsibility for one’s own behavior)
- polish everything (pay close attention to everyday interactions)
How It Will Work
My posts over the next month will have a little different focus each week.
- Week 1 (next week) will focus on romance and marriage
- Week 2 will focus on friendship
- Week 3 will focus on business/work relationships
- Week 4 will focus on family relationships
Check in often and participate. I look forward to hearing from all of you as we strengthen our connecting skills and Spring Clean Our Relationships!
