The Purpose of Relationship Pain - Jayson Gaddis - 493

Tue, 02 Apr 2024

Relationship pain has a very clear purpose. If you are hip to it, you’ll thrive in relationships. If you are uneducated here, you’ll run away and play the victim. Direct and to the point, I suggest a very important daily practice for you to strengthen your mindset about long-term partnership. Pain hurts indeed. And, what if pain was your ally in disguise?

 

Relationship Pain Daily Practice

I have two choices with my relationship pain:

1. Use it to make me weaker by whining, complaining, and blaming others (or myself).
2. Use it to make me stronger by seeing it as my ally to master the lesson it’s bringing me.

It’s 100% of the time up to me to choose.

  • 9:32 - The first thing to NOT do when in relationship pain
  • 13:40 - The good news about pain and stress

Dan and his husband have chosen what they call a "monogamish" relationship.
