Today, I want to share with you that you must work on yourself to be the best person you can possibly become. There is so much to you, great capabilities to achieve great success in every aspect of your life. Celebrate your individuality! You do not have to be like other people, you do not need to follow the crowd - follow the beat to your own drum; it is quite okay to do so.
As you explore all the possibilities of your life, what do you feel are your greatest attributes? Your ability to connect with others, be a friend, a good listener, perhaps one of your best qualities is to provide acts of service to others. Maybe you possess a great intellectual mind and are capable to solve large complex problems or successfully negotiate tough deals. Maybe you are very skilled with your hands and able to create, build, repair, and restore large and small to the most complex and the simplest of gadgets. No matter your talent, capitalize upon your innate ability and through discipline you will develop many skills.
Today is a good day to choose to recognize the great qualities of all those in your life. Instead of focusing on your similarities, maybe you should choose to learn about your differences and embrace them. Allow your significant other to be themselves and allow them to flourish in their individuality. A great mistake many couples make is to be strive to be alike in everything and in doing so limit their own uniqueness. This is a sad statement. Rather, I encourage you to support your differences in the way you think, see issues, and in your personal interests. It is okay to have differences rather than be in relationship where you mimic one another in everything you do. None of us need a clone, rather we need someone to enhance our lives, challenge our thinking and stretch us to grow to become more.
In our pursuit to live uniquely, rather than in a homogenized relationship, we choose to openly accept our differences and realize it is okay. We also celebrate our similarities noting the glue that ties us together in our relationship. The glue is our shared values, lifestyle choices and commitment level to those important to us in our lives.
A great concept in our relationships is to decide to allow each other the freedom to be ourselves. When we recognize why we were initially attracted to someone it is usually because there was something special about them and also they shared our same values. In my book, character is very important, what attracts me to a woman is someone who is confident in her demeanor, has high values, and loves herself and others. Maybe not everyone needs that in someone they seek, but it is essential we each learn what is our (turn-on’s) so to speak because those traits are the prerequisites we desire in those we bring into our lives.
I hope these thoughts are causing you to realize the importance of recognizing your uniqueness and that of the special person in your life, or those you want to enter your life. I want you to live an unparalleled existence with great happiness, joy and with unbounded love by unbinding the most important person in your life providing them the freedom to be his or herself. In doing so, you provide them with a great gift and with mutual understanding you too will be showered with the greatest gift of all to be yourself.
You will then find in allowing each other this great freedom, a new math 1 + 1 = 1
