Why You Feel Overwhelmed by Your Partner

“If you want to succeed in a relationship you gotta have deep caring; you gotta find out what this person really wants. You gotta communicate every single day what’s going on with each other, ways to support each other, and you gotta commit to whatever it takes to make the relationship work.” -Tony Robbins

When a person does not live a life true to themselves (in accordance to their own heart), they will experience different forms of emotional negativity. It may manifest as tiredness, irritation, dissatisfaction, crankiness, anger, frustration, depression, etc. Which can be a very taxing experience not only for themselves, but for the people around them as well. This holds especially true in romantic relationships.

Sometimes a couple will find themselves being frustrated at each other for the silliest of reasons. They may not realize that the real underlying cause of the frustration is because one or both of the parties are not having their hearts fulfilled. If the true underlying issue is not understood and corrected, it will lead to more aggravation, and eventually a separation.

If you are experiencing frequent feelings of frustration, irritation, or crankiness, then those are good signs you or your partner may not be living with fulfilled hearts.

Does your partner irritate you when he doesn’t reply to one or two of your texts messages? Are you cranky because she didn’t clean up after herself? Are you frustrated because he’s ten minutes late for a date? The more often you are angry or irritated at each other for simple things, the more of an indicator it is that one or both of you are not having your hearts fulfilled.

If your partner is a wonderful person in your eyes, but there are still frequent frustrations or an overall sense of dissatisfaction, then consider looking for ways to help one another connect with each other’s hearts. Help one another create an environment where your hearts can express themselves and flourish.

Find out what each other truly wants and commit to strengthening each other’s heart. Help each other grow and reach your goals.

When a relationship begins with the purpose of helping each other reach their own heart potential, a relationship will be created where both people are so fulfilled and happy, that love is a natural consequence.

Here are some ways to strengthen your relationship:

  1. Share an activity or experience that you both enjoy. If for example you both thrive while painting, then by all means create an atmosphere where you can both unleash your creative sides. When both of you are at your best, then the relationship will be at its best.
  2. Grow together. Look for areas in which you can both grow together or individually. If a couple does not grow together, it is likely that one person will outgrow the other. Look for ways to help one another grow, so that you may each grow at the same rate. Say for example both of you want to improve financially, then what each of you could do is encourage each other and share what each of you learn.
  3. Communicate. Talk with each other on a regular basis about how each of you are feeling. If talking is too difficult for either of you, then write your feelings down and have the other person read it. When you share each other’s feelings, don’t become upset for any truths that you may find. You need truth for any relationship to flourish. This is not the time to be upset at each other; it’s a time to improve.
  4. Care. Make an effort to care for the other person and help them when they are in need. If your partner is late for work, then help them by preparing them a quick bite to eat. These little actions will add to the love of the relationship.
  5. Give your partner space to work out their issues individually. Some people work best alone. There’s no point in trying to help a person if you can’t help them. Give them time and only help them if they ask for your help.
  6. End the relationship. Sometimes the best way to improve a relationship is to end it. If you find yourself with a person who refuses to improve in any way, then perhaps it’s best that you reevaluate your relationship with this person and decide whether you want to continue it or end it. It’s not uncommon that relationships don’t always work out and sometimes the best course of action is to let each other move on to find someone better suited.

Relationships work best when the hearts share the same values and desires. If I were a person who held financial abundance as a priority, but my partner does not, many disagreements could arise because of that difference and the chances of the relationship being successful would be lowered. Talk with your partner to find out what each of you really want and care for. Then help each other achieve it.

 

How to be Successful at Anything and Not Fail

These are the seven factors that you need to be successful at anything:

1. Be passionate.

Having passion for what you do is the number-one important factor in being successful. Without passion, without heart, giving up will seem like a much more pleasant option when the going gets tough. You can still succeed, but the chances of you succeeding go up astronomically when you’re passionate about what you do.

It’s your passion that will pick you up when you feel like giving up. When you have passion you’ll keep doing what you do because you love it, not because you need the money. Your passion will inspire you to act, sometimes even waking you up during the middle of your sleep.

2. Take action often.

You need to always take action towards your goals. It’s through action that people climb the tallest mountains in the world. They don’t stand at the edge of the mountain to look up at it and neither do they climb the mountain in one quick jump; climbers take it one step at a time. The same rule applies to any of life’s pursuits—you want to take your passions one step at a time. Eventually you will arrive.

The key is to constantly take action. Without action, you will not have any results.

3. Have great friends.

The third most important factor in being successful is having great friends who are encouraging and supportive. Like a fish trying to swim with the current instead of against it, it becomes much easier to succeed with a supportive social group.

Find friends who already are doing what you want to do. If you want to be passionate, find passionate friends. If you want to learn how to manage your money, find friends who are already doing well financially. Your social group will either work with you, or against you.

4. Work hard.

Everything is hard work, but it becomes so much easier to give it your all when you love what you do.

5. Practice, Push, and Persist

Practice until you’re great at it. The more you practice the more you will be recognized as an expert. Keep pushing yourself through fears, self-doubts, criticisms, and anything else that’s negative and be the best you can be. Successful people are normal people who failed many times, but never gave up on their dreams.

6. Focus.

You must have a focus. Focus on what you care about most. There will be many distractions along your path; from the simple distractions like television, to others that may seem important like keeping an empty email inbox. Without focus you will take a lot of misdirected action that accomplishes nothing. You must know what you’re aiming for if you want to succeed.

7. Contribute.

Everyone who is successful serves one way or another. It becomes a lot easier to be successful if you’re helping other people. Others will want to see you succeed if you’re the good guy because when you benefit, the whole world benefits as well.

Once you have been successful at one thing, don’t quit. Keep going. Success is a way of life, not a destination.
