Win - Win: Be a positive force in all your relationships with this new focus

Speaker: Vince Klassen Have you ever been the victim of being guilt-tripped into doing something? "Mom will be so hurt if you don’t go to that family gathering", "If you loved me...you would do this for me", or even "You owe me!" This kind of relationship leads to resentment which can backfire in a major way. Because, in the long run, resentment kills relationships. So what do we do? How do we create relationships where we actually enjoy our time together? And how do we make sure we are never the perpetrators that are creating resentment with our loved ones. The switch is pretty easy. It’s a new way of seeing relationships and requires a little bit of creativity. We are going to talk about it this week at the Spiritual Gym. Feel free to invite the people who guilt you into doing stuff you hate - but refrain from elbowing them at the parts you really want them to hear.
