EPISODE DETAILS:
- This episode covers relationships with humans, your relationship with spirituality will be covered in a later episode.
- This episode also covers more than just romantic and personal relationships.
- Relationships and understanding them is important because relationships are everywhere, for example when doing real estate there are so many relationships with all the different people in the process - pre sale and post sale.
- We need to work on relationships if you want to be in the world as they’re a very important part of life.
- We’re all born instinctively to need relationships although they can be very easy to take for granted, especially the one with our spouse.
- Bryce and his wife went to a relationship retreat and he was surprised to find that they spent 80% time working on the relationship with themselves.
- He learned that childhood will shape your relationships of the future - everyone has childhood experiences which shape our journey.
- The things we project onto other people are usually things we don’t like about ourselves.
- Self analysis is important and the relationship that needs the most work is the one with ourselves.
- We need to work through our own stuff and dig deep, so that we can provide value to others.
- Don’t compete against others, only compete against yourself.
- Introverts and extroverts; Extroverts get their energy from working and interacting with other people, whereas introverts recharge from being alone.
- You can’t fix people the same way you’d want to be fixed; you’ve got to treat them how they work rather than how you work.
- This is explained perfectly in the book ‘Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus’, that everyone has either masculine and feminine energy which creates different needs to be met.
- The second recommended book is ‘His needs, her needs’ which is a bit on the darker side and bit of a reality check talking about the worst cases that could happen.
- The third recommended book is ‘The 5 Love Languages’ which is the key to finding out what people want.
