“It’s more rewarding to resolve a situation than to dissolve a relationship”
The Question I Must Ask Myself: Do I sometimes put situations ahead of my relationships?
MAKE THE DECISION FIRST
Successful people make right decisions early and manage those decisions daily. That’s true when it comes to values priorities, finances, faith, health – and especially relationships. Keeping relationships strong is a decision.
HOW CAN I KEEP THE SITUATION IN PROPER PERSPECTIVE?
1. Do I See the Big Picture – or Just the Bad Picture?
a. Whenever you experience a rough time in a relationship, you need to remind yourself of why that relationship is significant to you in the first place.
2. Do I Communicate the Big Picture Along with the Bad One?
3. Is This a One Time Situation or an Oft-Repeated One?
4. Do I Make Too Many Situations a Life-or-Death Issue?
a. How often are you tense and upset?
b. How often do you raise your voice when talking to others?
c. How frequently are you battling for your personal rights or for what’s right?
5. Do I Show My Unconditional Love During Difficult Situations
