A Real Look at Relationships Day Two Questions for Contemplation

Today’s contemplation continues examining: Who are your closest relationships? We continue this contemplation with Partners. These are the people with whom you have long-term goals. Whether the goals are for lifelong or maybe even just a decade or two, these are the people with whom you have involved commitment.s They maybe work colleagues or business partners. This may include family or personal intimate relationship. These are the people you have known or maybe even plan to know for a large portion of your life. Who are the Partners in your life?

Are these relationships healthy relationships? Why are you committed to a relationship with them? What are the benefits of having them in your life? Is there anything missing you wish was there? We’re not judging here or making any decisions. We’re just becoming aware. If there is more you would like to see out of the relationship, contemplate it here.

As you move through the next 24 hours, allow yourself to be in contemplation of your Partnerships. Make a detailed list of who they are and how you interact in the relationship. Make notes about what works for you and include details of things you wish could be different. Remember: as you consider the things you would change. Don’t focus on what you don’t like, focus on how it would look if things could be different. Contemplate the possibilities of a relationship more suited to your organic eco-system.

As a final step to the day, define for yourself what healthy Partnerships look like to you. What is the healthiest Partnership you can imagine? After you are complete, write keywords that encapsulate the idea of healthy Partnerships for you. Then, add these keywords to your journal.
