There are many reasons why it is important to have and improve your relationships in order to improve your life. I’ll give you some pieces of advice for having strong relationships and to feel that you have a fulfilling life.

You may wonder why it is so important to have relationships? The truth is that we are social beings and to achieve our goals and our purpose in life we have to help others. Also become aware that your purpose  always has to do with what you can offer to the world, so if you don’t have a good relationship with others you will not be able to do what you want , to carry out your purpose,since there will be no unrelated receptor.

There are a number of points that will improve relationships in your life:

*Be patient with your closest relationships: parents, spouse, children, … because those are the people who will be with you forever: in good times and bad times. Try to be patient with them, understand them, and do all that is in your hands and all you can for them.

*Upgrade your existing friendships: in addition to making new friends, you should also try to improve your existing friendships. Get closer to those who you  already consider good friends, and find ways to further improve your relationship with them.

*Try to be empathetic: Instead of judging a person who never stops complaining.  try to understand what are the reasons and try to empathize with their situation.

*Improve your way of thinking, since it is an important and influential variable. No matter whether it is personal or business relationships, improving your focus and your mind can only have a positive effect.

*Always show respect: respect means listening, accepting a ”no” when you get it, be honest when dealing with others, and not criticize or reduce your disposal. It is also important not to try to control others, and it is important to show respect for yorself  and demand others to treat you with the same respect.

In order to improve your relationships outside the family and so to feel that  your social life improves, I want you to do the following 3 steps and to pay close attention to how you feel when doing them. I assure you that if you apply this steps, you will have a circle of very good relationships and you will feel that your social life will improve a lot:

STEP 1: Choose a friend you have that is currently outside your family circle. Already have it? Well. You will work for the relationship with that person for a week. Write on a blank sheet of paper the name of that person and keep it in mind during the week.Each day you will have to do the same and follow steps 2 and 3.

STEP 2: When you start the day look at the above list of  points and choose 2  of them that you believe  can be applied to that relationship with that person. Each day you will choose 2 points and you can then even  repeat some points.

STEP 3: You’ll be attentive when interacting with that person and you will take into account these points. At the end of the day, write on the sheet, the same you wrote his name, the two points that you tried and observations that you consider convenient that have to do with the points you’ve tried in the relationship.
After 7 days read the entire sheet and reflect on what you wrote. That will give you awareness and clarity of the relationship between that person and you. From now on  you will have to do what you think and what your interior dictates.
