5 Tips for Strong Relationships
1. Focus on what is right not wrong. Give compliments and kudos for the everyday small stuff.
2. Give what they need instead of you think they need. Don’t know? Ask what would make you feel most appreciated and loved today?
3. Focus on what is strong instead of what is wrong. Focus on strengths instead of weaknesses and you will grow my strengths.
4. Listen 80% of the time and speak 20% of the time. And listen without judgment and with respectful understanding.
5. Limit BMW (bitch, moan and whine) time and focus on what is best about them and their day.
(I ask Gary this every single night at dinner and his answer is the same….always about one of his work outs!)

I love my life! I have a passion and a purpose to share my recipe for health and happiness with RDNs and others – maybe even more so now that I’ve officially retired. If you want to learn what I discovered through coaching 1000 people over 9000 hours check out my final post, “Live Like This Is Your Last Day. Someday It Will Be!”
“THANK YOU for sharing years of your energy with us (with ME). Several years ago, I attended a seminar you taught, and I got some great ideas so I subscribed to Abundant Mondays and I’m so very happy I did. You make a difference in my life even though we have never met. I continue on my journey to adjust and adapt to the changes life brings and to remain positive and a positive influence. With your help.” -KJ
