Relationships, Get Them Right And You Can’t Go Wrong!
The way we interact with the world is through relationships. They are necessary, and unavoidable. As human beings we simply must interact and communicate with other human beings.
This is a good thing. Seeing as we have to do it and the fact that it is so important, we may as well learn the best way to do it.
We are going to have all kinds of relationships throughout our daily life and life in general, employment, friendship, romance, family, strangers and so on. How we deal with these is going to determine, at least in part whether we are happy, depressed or whatever degree in between.
Think about how a complete stranger has the ability to ruin our day with a few hostile or poorly chosen words, or the reverse, how a well chosen compliment from a stranger can brighten our whole day. If the smallest thing from a complete stranger can have this effect. What effect can those who are close to us have?
It is going to be very difficult to be happy if we have poor relations at work. If you have tension between yourself and another it is going to be very difficult to even be comfortable, let alone happy. Same with romance, same with family. All our interacting must be smooth and tension free. So how do we achieve this?
It has to start with us. We are a mirror. People's behavior toward us is a reflection back off your behavior towards them. Don’t get caught in a circle of negative reflection. Sometimes there is a delay in the mirror, particularly if there is history involved. Start to display the behavior you want reflected back and persevere with it. It will work sooner or later.
Next we must acknowledge that we can have influence over others, but we cannot have control. The way we influence is to lead by example with our behavior. The only control we can have is of our reaction to what is going on. We can
change how we feel about what is going on.
This is a very important skill to learn and I recommend reading the article on it.
This is a large subject and this is just a very, very basic introduction. Provided are some resources from the leading authorities on the matter. Avoid unnecessary anxiety by learning as much as you can about personal interaction and communication. You will be serving yourself well.
