11 SECRETS TO HAVING A STRONG RELATIONSHIP

If you desire a loving and lasting relationship with your partner, you and your partner need to adopt the following habits below:

1. COMMITMENT:

Commitment is very important if you desire to have a strong relationship with your partner. You have to decide to stick with your partner and make the relationship work irrespective of the flaws your partner might have. Couples who renew their commitments everyday, in words and deed, are on their way to having a strong relationship.

2. KEEP YOUR PRIVATE LIFE PRIVATE

When you put your relationship on social media, you invite the public to your relationship. Keep your private matters private. It’s a relationship between you and your partner and not between you, your partner and the public. You can share your fun dates with your partner or some nice photos together on your Facebook or Instagram app but make sure you draw the line where necessary.

3. KNOW WHEN TO LET THINGS SLIDE AND LEARN HOW TO MANAGE CONFLICTS

Finding ways to reduce the frequency of conflict in your relationship by letting go of the little things will help you build a strong relationship with your partner. Arguments are normal in a relationship but you should make sure you never insult your partner during an argument. Always listen to what your partner has to say during an argument.

4. LEARN TO LISTEN

Speaking less and listening more is important if you want to build a strong relationship with your partner. It’s important you always pay close attention to what your partner has to say. Ask your partner how his/her day went and listen to him/her talk about their day.

5. MAKE TIME TO DATE

Spending quality time with your partner is important if you desire to build a strong relationship. Nothing substitutes for time together. No matter how busy you are, always create time to go out on dates with your partner.

6. BE TOTALLY TRANSPARENT

Partners in strong relationships have no secrets. If you desire to build a strong relationship with your partner, you have to be completely transparent with your partner. You don’t need privacy in your relationship if you want a strong relationship.

7. TRY NEW THINGS TOGETHER

Whether it be something as simple as watching a movie neither of you has seen, or something as extreme as skydiving, trying new things together as a couple is important if you want to have a strong relationship. Trying new things together keeps the excitement and passion going in your relationship.

8. COMPLIMENT YOUR PARTNER

You shouldn’t save the compliments for big events alone, make complimenting your partner a regular occurrence. You make your partner feel special and noticed when you compliment him/her and this helps build a strong relationship.

9. NEVER PUT EACH OTHER DOWN IN PUBLIC

How you treat your partner in front of others matter if you desire to build a strong relationship with your partner. Never ever put each other down or say anything negative about your partner in public. Only say supportive and kind things to each other in public and save disagreements for when you both are alone.

10. NEVER GET TIRED OF SAYING “I LOVE YOU”

These three little words “I love you” are important if you want to build a strong relationship with your partner. No matter how long or hard your day was, always end your day by telling your partner how much you love him/her. End your day with the words “I love you”.

11. LEARN HOW TO COMPROMISE

You have to understand the value of compromise if you want to build a strong relationship. You may not always want to do what your partner wants but if it’s important to your partner, do it with a smile on your face

Are you too quick to leave a relationship?

There are lots of good reasons to leave a relationship.
In some cases, you may find the other person isn’t who you hoped they were.
 Perhaps now that you've got to know them properly, you’ve realised there isn’t enough compatibility to sustain things long term.

In the case of longer relationships, you may feel that either you or your partner has changed over time and that your partnership isn’t fulfilling the same role it once was.

However, in some cases, we may also be tempted to give up on a relationship before really giving it a chance.

We may feel that the effort of trying is going to be too great - or even that the fact we have to try indicates there’s something wrong here.


What does it mean to ‘give things a try’?

Being too ‘quick’ to leave a relationship isn’t necessarily about the amount of time you invest in it - sometimes, it’s about the amount of energy and attention.

Giving a relationship a proper try is about working towards a genuine understanding of the other person.

Why might someone give up on a relationship too soon?

There are many reasons why someone might get into this pattern of behaviour.
You may have insecurities about long-term commitment - and find the idea difficult or scary. You may have grown up in an environment where you learnt about the more difficult side of commitment - witnessing your parents divorce, for instance, or the breakdown of a family relationship.

What should you do?

Simply? Try to give things a real ‘go’. This may sound fairly cliched and easier said than done, but it really is the key to giving both you and any potential partner the chance to really understand one another.
A lot of this is to do with trying to be more open, communicative and honest. Although this can be a little harder, sometimes more frustrating and will definitely involve being more vulnerable, it can also mean really getting an understanding of who each other is and whether your relationship might work in the longer term.

Advice on how to have a healthy relationship

Connecting with someone romantically, emotionally, and physically can be really amazing. But there's a lot of work that goes into building a good relationship.

No relationship is perfect all the time. But in a healthy relationship, both people feel good about the relationship most of the time.
A great relationship takes more than attraction —
 it takes work, and both of you have to be willing to put in the effort.
Here are some tips for building a healthy relationship:
Love yourself. Being comfortable with who you are means you’ll be a happier partner.

Communicate.
 Talk to your partner about your feelings. Ask questions and listen to their answers. If you’re upset, say so — don’t make your partner try to figure out what’s up.

Be honest.
Be truthful with each other about what you do, think, and feel.
Honesty creates trust. Few things harm a relationship more than lies.  

Give each other some space. 
Couple’s time is great, but spending ALL your time together isn’t.
It’s healthy to have your own friends and interests outside of the relationship.

Agree to disagree. 
You’re not always going to see eye to eye, and that’s OK.
 The important thing is to respect each other’s opinions and ideas.

Forgive and ask for forgiveness.
Everybody makes mistakes. Be willing to apologize for yours,
and accept your partner’s apologies.

Support each other. 
When your partner does something great, tell them!
 Your partner should do the same for you.

Talk about sex…openly and honestly.
  Telling your partner what feels good and what you like and don’t like helps you have better sex. Never pressure your partner into doing something they don’t want to do.

HOW TO BUILD SELF CONFIDENCE

Each and every one of us has self-esteem.

 Self-confidence is made up of the thoughts we have about ourselves and plays a role in almost everything we do.

Having healthy self-confidence is really important as it helps you make positive choices in your everyday life, gives you the courage to be your own person, have good relationships and helps you deal with difficult situations.

 "Low self-confidence  is like driving through life with your hand brake on.” -- Maxwell Maltz
Nobody is born with limitless self- confidence. 

If someone seems to have incredible 

self-confidence,it’s because he or she has worked on building it for years. 

Self-confidence is something that you learn to build up because the challenging world of business, and life in general, can deflate it.

1. Visualize yourself as you want to be.

“What the mind can conceive and believe it can achieve.” -- Napoleon Hill

Visualization is the technique of seeing an image of yourself that you are proud of, in your own mind. 

When we struggle with low self-confidence,we have a poor perception of ourselves that is often inaccurate. Practice visualizing a fantastic version of yourself, achieving your goals.

2. Affirm yourself.
"Affirmations are a powerful tool to deliberately install desired beliefs about yourself."-- Nikki Carnevale

We tend to behave in accordance with our own self-image.The trick to making lasting change is to change how you view yourself.

3. Do one thing that scares you every day.
“If you are insecure, guess what? 

 Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself.You are better than you think.

” -- T.Harv Eker

The best way to overcome fear is to face it head-on. By doing something that scares you every day and gaining confidence from every experience, you will see your self-confidence soar.So get out of your comfort zone and face your fears!

4. Question your inner critic.
“You have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.” -- Louise L. Hay

Some of the harshest comments that we get come from ourselves, via the "voice of the inner critic." If you struggle with low self-confidence,there is a possibility that your inner critic has become overactive and inaccurate.
