Building Relationships – the Key to Your Personal Success Successful people have the ability to develop relationships that last. Building relationship requires the building of trust. Your Most Important Relationship Your relationship with yourself is your closest and most important relationship. What kind of relationship with yourself have you chosen – a judging, a coaching, a fearful, or a loving one? "Ask yourself in meditation what kind of friendship you want to nurture with your own self – do you want an inner friend who constantly judges you and denies you love, or do you want an inner friend who accepts you just as you are?" advises John Selby. Jesus on Love "Love your neighbor, but who is your neighbor. Your neighbor is the one who is sent to you from the Divine. Your neighbor can be one who is a total stranger to you from afar. Your neighbor can be someone living close to you. But what is true is that your neighbor is one of the Light who needs your support as much as you need his."... More Balancing Giving and Receiving Your life can only be in balance when giving and receiving are in balance. Every interpersonal relationship is built on this fact of life. He who always gives acts against this principle just as much as he who only takes. This basic truth is valid without exception everywhere where people deal with people...

Humorous Tips from Men:
Move From HOW Are You To WHO Are You By: Scott Ginsberg There comes a time in every conversation with someone you’ve just met when you must cross the chasm between “HOW are you?” and “WHO are you?” A helpful technique for doing so is by asking creative, open ended questions. These questions function as front porches, inasmuch as their ability to build rapport, spark creativity and invite people to share their experiences and preferences. What’s more, they show an interest in people’s opinions and insights... More Friendship There is solid scientific evidence that friendship can extend life. Several hundreds of studies attest to the health benefits of friendship. People with plentiful social support have stronger immune systems and are less likely to suffer from depression, anxiety and other types of mental illness. Having friends mitigates the physiological consequences of stress. Case in Point Health Benefits of Friendship
In a Yale University study of 194 heart attack patients,
those who reported emotional support were three times more likely to be
alive six months after their attack than subjects who had no support. In a study at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburg, researchers rounded up 276 volunteers, dripped cold viruses into their noses, and then quarantined them for five days. Subjects who had a wide range of friends and acquaintances had one-fourth the chance of catching a cold as those whose social networks were minimal. 10 Rules of Effective Listening By: Linda Eve Diamond Listening broadens us, lays the groundwork for peace, elevates the quality of our relationships, and opens the way to success.
